Understanding Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer is a condition characterized by uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the ovaries, which can develop tumors and potentially spread to other parts of body. Ovarian cancer is often diagnosed in the later stages as the symptom in the first stage are very subtle and often overlooked. Ovarian cancer is mostly diagnosed in women over 50 years of age and is the third most common type of cancer among Indian women. The journey of dealing with it can be distressing but it is possible to make it easier by treating it carefully and in many cases even defeat it. Dr. Namrata Kachhara is a qualified and trusted oncologist helping patients deal with Ovarian cancer in Indore for years.

What causes Ovarian Cancer?

The exact cause of ovarian cancer is yet to be discerned but there are some factors that have been observed to contribute to its increased risks in a person’s body, which include:

Age

In  general,  the  risk  increases  with  increasing  age.

Nulliparity

When an ovary releases an egg, its surface is damaged and needs to be repaired. Over a lifetime, this repeated cycle of ovulation and repair may contribute to abnormal cell growth and cancer development.

Familial predisposition

Having a family history of breast cancer or ovarian cancer increases the risks of ovarian cancer in a person.

Obesity

Obesity can lead to hormonal changes and it is also linked with having more ovulation cycles in a woman’s life

Personal history

Having a history of breast cancer increases one’s risks of developing ovarian cancer.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis is associated with an increased risk of developing ovarian cancer.

Stages of Ovarian Cancer

After a confirmed diagnosis of ovarian cancer by Dr Namrata Kachhara in Indore, the stage of cancer can be identified based on the results of your tests.

Ovarian cancer is classified in 4 stages depending upon its severity. These stages characterize as follows:

Stage 1

Ovarian cancer represents an early stage, and the prognosis is usually better than in more advanced stages.

Treatment: Usually, a surgery is performed to remove the affected ovary or ovaries, as well as the fallopian tubes. Depending on the specific findings during surgery, further treatments such as chemotherapy may be prescribed to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Stage 3

Ovarian cancer in stage three is regarded as advanced and involves a more widespread disease spread inside the abdominal cavity.

Treatment: Chemotherapy plus surgery is a common combination used for treatment. The patient’s general health, the degree of the spread, the outcome of the surgery, and the patient’s reaction to chemotherapy may influence the prognosis for Stage 3 ovarian cancer.

Stage 2

Ovarian cancer is more advanced than Stage 1, as the cancer has spread beyond the ovaries and fallopian tubes to affect other pelvic organs.

Treatment: Stage 2 ovarian cancer is typically treated with surgery and chemotherapy. The surgery aims to eliminate as much of the tumor as possible, while chemotherapy is used to eliminate any remaining cancer cells while decreasing the risk of recurrence.

Stage 4

Ovarian cancer means it has spread to other parts of the body.

Treatment: the primary objectives of treatment are to manage the cancer, reduce symptoms, and enhance quality of life.

Given that the cancer has spread to other organs, the prognosis for Stage 4 ovarian cancer is typically worse than for earlier stages. However, patients with ovarian cancer in Indore are receiving better care and outcomes all the time thanks to effective treatment provided by Dr. Namrata Kachhara.
