Ovarian Cancer is known as the silent killer.~ Women are not aware of the symptoms as they are subtle and masked, looking like other health issues.~ By the time ovarian cancer is actually diagnosed, it is often stage 3 or 4. ~There is a desperate need to raise awareness of the symptoms of Ovarian Cancer and find a method for early detection!

Over 22,000 US women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer every year with over 14,000 deaths each year.~ The 5-year survival rate of 36% has not improved in the last 40 years.~ Funding for Ovarian Cancer research needs to be dramatically increased to improve treatments and to find a cure.~ ~
