Title: Ovarian Cancer Finding
Post by: Tank on April 08, 2011, 08:17:49 PM
Ovarian Cancer Finding May Be a 'Win-Win' for at-Risk Women Who Wish to Have a Family (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/04/110407132612.htm)

QuoteScienceDaily (Apr. 8, 2011) â€" Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University's Oregon National Primate Research Center may have good news for women at high-risk for ovarian cancer who also want to have children. The research suggests that a layer of cells, which serve as the "breeding ground" for ovarian cancer, may be removed yet allow the women to have children. This would be a vast improvement over the current prevention strategy for women at high risk for ovarian cancer: Removal of the ovaries entirely...

Very interesting article.

Oh it's just one of Tank's science posts, I was worried they'd found some bad cells in his ovary.

The immunizations for cervical cancer are a wonderful thing, the white coat people are working on an ovarian cancer immunization too.
