What can I say? I was a cheapskate
This is a
rather simplistic review of the genetics of ovarian cancer, containing lots of
stuff you already know. Nevertheless it
is worth reading, or at least skimming.
Always remember: the majority of
OVCA cases are not caused by inherited genetic mutations, but rather are caused
by what I think of as simple bad luck.
Your “luck” gets lessened by increased age, lots of ovulation (no birth
control pills, no pregnancies), hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms, and
obesity. If you don’t understand, read
the article. Please.
