2)Ovarian Cancer

-OVARIAN cancer has overtaken cervical cancer as the most common gynecological cancer in singapore.

-Now,doctors are seeing 150 to 200 new cases of ovarian cancer a year,while cervical cancer has dropped to slightly more than 150 new cases a year.

-Women can help themselves by going for scheduled Pap smears and physical examinations.The five-year survival rates also show that the earlier the cancer is detected, the better the chances of survival
