Each year in Australia around 1,900 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. In most cases the cancer will be diagnosed at an advanced stage, where it is very difficult to treat.

The symptoms of ovarian cancer are often vague and difficult to diagnose because they can be caused by other, less serious medical conditions.
