QUOTE FOR THURSDAY:*

“If you’ve been diagnosed with ovarian cancer, your cancer care team will discuss your treatment options with you. It’s important that you think carefully about each of your choices. Weigh the benefits of each treatment option against the possible risks and side effects.  Typically, treatment plans are based on the type of ovarian cancer, its stage, and any special situations. Most women with ovarian cancer will have some type of surgery to remove the tumor. Depending on the type of ovarian cancer and how advanced it is, you might need other types of treatment as well, either before or after surgery, or sometimes both. Typically the range of treatments are from surgery to chemo therapy, hormone therapy, targeted temperature therapy and/or immunotherapy depending on the oncologist team on the case.”
