Even if the ovaries are removed, ovarian cancer can still develop elsewhere. It is important to continue watching for signs of the disease. I am enclosing a list of the symptoms of ovarian cancer, and I hope you will print it for all the women in your reading audience.

Most women are diagnosed when the chance for survival for five years is about 20 percent.
Early detection improves survival rates.
Symptoms are subtle at first but become more persistent and identifiable as time goes on. Frequent or urgent urination. Nausea, indigestion, constipation or diarrhea. Menstrual disorders or pain during intercourse. Actually, it was Dale Carnegie who said that.
