About Ovarian Cancer

Eat for the health of it.

Who is at risk for ovarian cancer?

A daughter has an increased risk of getting ovarian cancer, if her mother has had it. And an increased risk if another close relative has it(like a grandmother or sister.) Women have a higher risk of ovarian cancer as they get older, like in their 50's and 60's. Studies have shown that women who has never had any children are even more likely to develope ovarian cancer. In fact the more children you have the less likely you will develope ovarian cancer.

Women who have had breast or colon cancer are more likely to develope ovarian cancer. Researchers are studying the possibility of women who have taken fertility drugs could be at risk too for developing ovarian cancer.

And there is a possibility that women who have used talc in the genital area could be at risk of ovarian cancer. Some evidence suggests that woman who have used hormonal replacement therapy could also be at risk for developing ovarian cancer.
Hopefully as they do more research they can figure out what is causing ovarian cancer and find a way to stop it.

My personal feeling is that the more women stick to the more natural way of life,the less likely that she could develope ovarian cancer. I know that the modern way is taking pills to stop ovulation so you won't get pregnant. Maybe even using other means of birth control, foams and devices, we don't know for sure but it just seems that we never heard of woman having ovarian cancer until they started using birth control.

If you are one of the higher risk, like having a close relative with ovarian cancer, just find a highly recommended gynecologist and get checked often or maybe he will suggest that after you have your babies that you want, they can remove the ovaries. That would be one sure thing.

Laughter is healthy: Apples and Wine
Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead they just take the fallen apples that are easy to get. The apples at the top are thinking that something is wrong with them, when in fact they are patiently waiting for the right man that is brave enough to climb to the top of the tree to pick them. Share this with another woman.

Now men..Men are like fine wine. They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the stuffing out of them until they turn into something great to have dinner with.
