family history of ovarian cancer

What is the role of regular screening?

Regular screening can help in the early detection of ovarian cancer, especially in women with a family history. While there is no standardized screening protocol for the general population, those at high risk may benefit from regular screening tests like transvaginal ultrasound and the CA-125 blood test. However, it is important to discuss with a healthcare provider to tailor the screening approach based on individual risk factors.
