Ovarian Cancer Awareness MonthStarts Friday February 1st at 1:00amThis February, Ovarian Cancer Australia is urging Australians to recognise the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer, know their family history and know how to help through our Know Ovarian Cancer campaign. Only 43% of the almost 1,500 women diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year will survive. With no early detection test, it is so important that women know the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer and their family history. Know the signs and symptoms Know my family history Know how to help Know my story Afternoon Teal CampaignOvarian Cancer Australia is asking you to join us in our efforts to raise awareness and funds to support women with ovarian cancer by hosting an Afternoon Teal this February.
