Ovarian cancer is cancer that involves different regions of the ovary. (The female reproductive system usually contains two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus.) Changes that happen in the Fallopian tube(s) may be related to the cancer. (The female reproductive system usually contains two fallopian tubes, one for each ovary.) Other types of ovarian cancer involve egg cells.  Ovarian cancer is a particularly difficult cancer for at least four reasons:  The unfortunate result is that when it is found, this cancer is often already at a late stage, meaning it has existed for some time and is very difficult to treat. A woman's risk of getting ovarian cancer during her lifetime is about 1 in 87. Worldwide, there are more than 313,000 new cases of ovarian cancer every year.  Some of the risk (chance) of getting ovarian cancer is linked to the foods a woman eats. That is a modifiable (changeable) risk factor, meaning a woman can change her chance of getting ovarian cancer depending on what foods she eats. About 10% of the risk of getting ovarian cancer is because of family history. Researchers think that some chemicals may increase the risk of getting ovarian cancer. This is difficult to prove, but chemicals such as pesticides, herbicides, plastics (especially those that the body can confuse with hormones), air pollution, water pollution (especially in drinking water) and radiation (naturally-occurring or medical) are known to cause some cancers. For ovarian cancer, it appears that the largest risk is simply chance. Once in a while, a tiny mistake occurs in the body. The more egg-release cycles that a woman has, the more chances there are that a tiny mistake could happen and cause cancer to start. Unlike certain other types of cancer, for ovarian cancer there is not one main, obvious, external risk factor such as smoking, sun exposure, alcohol or a virus or bacterium.  Lawyers started many lawsuits (court cases) in the United States against the drug company Johnson &amp; Johnson (J&amp;J). The lawyers said that some women who put Johnson &amp; Johnson's talcum powder (baby powder) on the
