The study is published in the September 15, 2009 issue of Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society. http://www.huliq.com/11/84708/young-ovarian-cancer-patients-can-preserve-fertility#comments Health fertility ovarian cancer Mon, 10 Aug 2009 01:01:49 -0500 harminka 84708 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/83267/menarche-ovulatory-cycles-influence-survival-woman-ovarian-cancer Researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that survival among women with ovarian cancer is influenced by age of menarche and total number of lifetime ovulatory cycles. http://www.huliq.com/11/83267/menarche-ovulatory-cycles-influence-survival-woman-ovarian-cancer#comments Health ovarian cancer women's health Thu, 09 Jul 2009 00:53:18 -0500 harminka 83267 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/82852/new-technique-improves-ovarian-transplantation Ultra-fast freezing of ovarian tissue from women who have lost their fertility as a result of cancer treatment can lead to it being used in transplants with the same success rate as fresh tissue, a researcher told the 25th annual conference of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology. http://www.huliq.com/11/82852/new-technique-improves-ovarian-transplantation#comments Health Cancer Treatment Organ Transplants ovarian cancer Mon, 29 Jun 2009 10:31:29 -0500 harminka 82852 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/81216/breast-ovarian-cancer-tests-greatly-underutilized Although a test for gene mutations known to significantly increase the risk of hereditary breast or ovarian cancer has been available for more than a decade, a new study finds that few women with family histories of these cancers are even discussing genetic testing with their physicians or other health care providers. http://www.huliq.com/11/81216/breast-ovarian-cancer-tests-greatly-underutilized#comments Health breast cancer ovarian cancer Thu, 21 May 2009 12:59:05 -0500 harminka 81216 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/79201/ovarian-cancer-screening-not-catching-early-disease The new study looked at a screening regimen that combines ultrasound and a blood test for CA-125, a marker for women's cancer.
