The purpose of this study is to see the effects of two different standard of care treatments of endometrial cancer on sexual dysfunction. This study will compare two standard of care treatments: HDR (high dose radiation) vaginal brachytherapy 3 fractions of 7 Gy to HDR vaginal brachytherapy 6 fractions of 4Gy for early stage endometrial cancer.
Patients are randomized to HDR vaginal brachytherapy 7 Gy in 3 fractions prescribed at 5mm. Radiation delivered 4-12 weeks after surgery OR HDR vaginal brachytherapy 4Gy in 6 fractions prescribed at the cylinder surface. Patients have the option to request to decline their randomization and switch to the alternate treatment ARM if they prefer.
Radiation delivered 4-12 weeks after surgery. Participants in all Arms will receive standard vaginal dilator for use after treatment (to promote healing). 3 month, 1 year and 2 year follow up assessments are performed.

Inclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria:
Disease of more advanced stage (FIGO stage III-IV) or disease for which adjuvant external beam radiation therapy or chemotherapy is indicated
Patients with a history of prior pelvic radiation therapy or if additional pelvic radiation therapy is planned
Subjects who have not recovered from side effects of agents administered more than 4 weeks prior to the on-study date
Subjects that require > 14 weeks between surgery and initiation of radiation therapy on study unless the subject is receiving chemotherapy. Subjects receiving chemotherapy may have radiation therapy initiated within 6 months after surgery.
* Subjects who do not meet this criteria may still be eligible. The UVA Coordinating Center and Overall Study PI will review each case and inform the site of the approval decision.
Subjects who are receiving any investigational agents or have had any investigational agent within the 30 days prior to the on-study date
Subject is unable or unwilling to participate in a study-related procedure
Pregnant and breastfeeding women are excluded from this study
Subject is a prisoner
A serious uncontrolled medical disorder that in the opinion of the Investigator would impair the ability of the subject to receive protocol therapy.
Subjects with a history of evidence upon physical examination of central nervous system disease including primary brain tumor, seizures not controlled with standard medical therapy, any brain metastases, or history of cerebrovascular accident (stroke), transient ischemic attack, or subarachnoid hemorrhage within six months of study entry
