Although there is still no known cure for ovarian

Although there is still no known cure for ovarian cancer, researchers are working tirelessly to give us hope. They have gained a new understanding about the origin of this disease which may help early detection options. ⠀
Ovarian cancer researchers like Professor Clare Scott aim to discover how epithelial cancer starts, better ways to treat it, and establish markers that will predict a patients' response to treatment. New data sets and models allow them to accurately track how each patient’s cancer is changing or responding to treatment. 👩‍⚕️ ⠀
⠀
“The success of this approach shows that a long-term, detailed analysis is invaluable for providing better patient care” Professor Scott says. ⠀
⠀
Researchers know there is no ""one size fits all"" approach, and they are looking for ways give women a more personalised and targeted treatment plan. 📚 ⠀

The fight to make ovarian cancer more manageable and less fatal is ongoing. ⠀

Just because you have any of these risk factors, it doesn't mean you will end up with ovarian cancer.
It just means that you have a higher chance than those with no risk factors.

The good news is, the more you know about these risk factors and what to look out for, the better your chance at early detection. Ultimately it will lead to a better treatment outcome if it does happen.

Always stay alert, and informed about any changes in your body.❤️

After Nina's mum Koula was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, she knew that taking up the offer of genetic testing would be the best thing for her future. ⠀
⠀
Testing positive for the BRCA2 gene helped push Nina to get the prophylactic mastectomy, reconstruction, and removal of fallopian tubes to reduce the chance of a cancer diagnosis being in her future. ⠀

Sometimes, you need to know the scary information in order to make the best decisions you can for a long, and healthy life. 👩‍👧

The treatment of ovarian cancer will be based on the type and stage that you have, and will usually involve a combination of surgery and chemotherapy. ⠀
