The statistics for ovarian cancer remain frightening. Every day, four Australian women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer; three will die from the disease. Unlike other cancers, there is no early detection test for ovarian cancer and because symptoms are vague, more than 75% of those diagnosed are already in the advanced stages of the disease.

Treatment for ovarian cancer is aggressive and most often consists of surgery, including the removal of ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus, followed by intensive chemotherapy. Though initially successful treatments, 9 out of 10 women will develop recurrent or drug resistant disease, many not surviving beyond 5 years.

Treatment options have not changed in 30 years.

Do it all for all women everywhere.
