Ovarian and Fallopian Cancers Prevention
Suggested preventive measures include the following:
- healthy diet (high in fruits, vegetables, grains, and low in saturated fat)
- birth control pills
- pregnancy and breastfeeding
- hysterectomy - surgical removal of the uterus.
- tubal ligation - surgery to block the fallopian tubes to prevent conception.
- oophorectomy - surgical removal of ovaries.
Research studies have shown that certain genes are responsible for increasing the risk of ovarian and breast cancer.
