Cancer and its treatment may sometimes put female survivors at risk for infertility. You should talk to your gynecologist about the risk for infertility before treatment begins, there are still options for cancer survivors who may experience infertility as a result of cancer or its treatment. Any Chemo or Radiation administered in the abdominal area most often will cause the mother-to-be to lose the baby. There is still a possibility of getting pregnant depending on the severity of ovarian cancer and if it was treated early but only your gynecologist would know for sure. Good luck!
No. The ovaries have been removed, therefore you cannot get ovarian cancer if you do not have ovaries.
i would like to know can you get pregant with cancer on the ovaries because i have stage 2 cancer on the ovaries and not doing treatment yet.
Clinical Ovarian Cancer was created in 2008.
There is no evidence that HPV causes ovarian cancer.
Wisconsin Ovarian Cancer Alliance was created in 2001.
A pap smear will not detect ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer won't affect whether a pap smear is normal or abnormal -- it could be either one.
Overall, ovarian cancer accounts for only 4% of all cancers in women
None. You cannot treat ovarian cancer with diet supplements.
Ovarian cancer does not produce specific symptoms that would clue doctors to this diagnosis. Most common symptoms include malaise, weakness, bloating, vague abdominal discomfort. There are no good blood markers that can diagnose ovarian cancer. Therefore, it is difficult to screen for ovarian cancer. By the time symptoms develop, quite often ovarian cancer can already be spread and metastasized.
the history is not when it started, the history is what it is and it is cancer of the ovaries.
There are quite a few websites regarding ovarian cancer. Here are just a few: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001891/ & http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/ovarian-cancer/DS00293
It is estimated that 140,000 women WORLDWIDE die each year from ovarian cancer.
I just recently had a friend who had both cervical and ovarian cancer. The strange thing was the ovarian cancer was one type of cancer in stage 2 and the cervical cancer was a totally different type of cancer in stage 1. She recovered fully from both.
Ovarian cancer and cervical cancer have nothing in common other than the fact that they occur in the female reproductive tract. Cervical cancer can be detected early with pap smears and other screening tests, and prevented with HPV vaccine. There are few, if any, screening tests for ovarian cancer. Only hormonal contraception has been shown to lower the risk of ovarian cancer.
