Ovarian cancer that’s found early, when it’s small and has not spread, is easier to treat successfully. Ovarian cancer is sometimes found after symptoms appear, but many women with ovarian cancer have no symptoms. This is why it’s important to share your family history and any risk factors with your provider.

According to the American Cancer Society, ovarian cancer is rare in women younger than 40 and typically develops after menopause. Risk factors include:

Giving birth for the first time after 35 years of age and never having a full-term pregnancy
Having a family history of ovarian cancer, breast cancer, or colorectal cancer
Having a family cancer syndrome – up to 25% of ovarian cancers are a part of family cancer syndromes resulting from inherited changes (mutations) in certain genes.
Taking hormone therapy after menopause
Using fertility treatment
