Ten Warning Signs of Ovarian Cancer | The Silent Killer

Ovarian Cancer, often called "The Silent Killer,"  is one of the most deadly cancers in women.  According to the American Cancer Society  only 20-30 percent of women diagnosed with late stage Ovarian Cancer are alive 5 years later.   That means 70-80% of these women died. Think of it this way: if there are 10 women  with ovarian cancer in the room only 2 or 3 of them will be alive in five years.   Why?
