September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Here's what you need to know about the disease. Ovarian cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the ovaries. 10-15 percent of ovarian cancers are inherited, and women with a family history are at a greater risk. Unfortunately, all women are at risk of #ovariancancer. There is no effective early screening that can successfully detect ovarian #cancer at an early stage, and the symptoms can be vague most of the time. Still, doctors believe that pain in the #pelvis and #abdomen, urgent need to urinate, and constant bloating can indicate an early ovarian cancer. It's not clear what causes ovarian cancer, but doctors have identified that old age, family history of ovarian cancer, and estrogen hormonal replacement therapy are some of the factors that can increase the risk of the disease. The risk of developing ovarian cancer can be reduced by 50% if you take birth control pills consistently for 5+ years. It is important that every woman get screened for genetic factors including BRCA1 and BRCA2. #ovariancancer #cancer #pelvis #abdomen
