Not everyone with Lynch syndrome will develop cancer, but you have an increased risk compared to the general population. People with Lynch syndrome have an increased risk of developing some types of cancer, such as:
• bowel (colorectal)
• endometrial or uterine
• ovarian cancer.
Lynch syndrome causes 1 in every 35 cases of bowel cancer, 1 in every 50 cases of endometrial cancer.
Your risk of developing cancer depends on which gene is affected, your age and being male or female.
