Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Ovarian cancer refers to any cancerous growth that begins in the ovary. These cancer cells multiply quickly and can destroy healthy body tissues.

ovarian cancer is the 5th leading cause of cancer- related death among women in the United States.

Ovarian cancer is in stages and the stage should be looked out for during diagnosis.

  • Localized- when it only affects the ovaries or fallopian tube and has not spread elsewhere.
  • Region- when the ovarian cancer has spread to other places like the uterus.
  • Distant- When the Ovarian cancer is present elsewhere in the body and now affects the use of drugs.

When Ovarian cancer is diagnosed early, the treatment can be more effective. However, Ovarian cancer is usually diagnosed at late stage. It is important to remain vigilant and aware of any kind of symptom.
