Story
WITH YOUR KIND DONATIONS AND SUPPORT WE HAVE RAISED $7,581.50 FOR OVARIAN CANCER AUSTRALIA. THANK YOU
February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
I'm hosting an Afternoon Teal to help raise funds and awareness for ovarian cancer.
There currently is no early detection test for ovarian cancer making it important for every woman to know the signs and symptoms.
The four types of symptoms most frequently:
- Abdominal or pelvic pain.
- Increased abdominal size or persistent abdominal bloating.
- Needing to urinate often or urgently.
- Difficulty eating or feeling full quickly.
Ovarian Cancer Australia is the country’s only national organisation dedicated to raising awareness of ovarian cancer, delivering support to women and their families affected by the disease, and funding the best ovarian cancer research.
