Ovarian and Fallopian Cancers Risk Factors

The following have been suggested as risk factors for ovarian, fallopian tube and pertioneal cancer:

early menarche - starting monthly periods early - before the age of 12
late menopause (after the age of 52)
age - over the age of 55
obesity
hormone replacement therapy
Some studies have suggested that women who use hormone replacement therapy after menopause may have a slightly increased risk of ovarian cancer.
infertility (inability to become pregnant)
personal history of breast or colon cancer
family history
First-degree relatives (such as mother, daughter, sister) of a woman who has had ovarian cancer are at risk for developing the disease. The risk increases if two or more first-degree relatives have had ovarian cancer. A family history of breast or colon cancer is also associated with an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer.
