Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month - Get checked now to see if you have a genetic risk!

With 7500 women receiving an ovarian cancer diagnosis in the UK each year, and currently only 3 in 10 women diagnosed live beyond 10 years. This needs to change!

It is therefore our mission to support as many of you as possible in identifying whether you are carrying a variant in your DNA which could increase your risk of developing ovarian cancer. 

With around 5-15% of ovarian cancers having an underlying genetic component identifying your genetic risk could actually be life-saving. Since early-stage ovarian cancer can go unnoticed with few symptoms, most cases go undetected until the disease has spread. Knowing your genetic risk allows access to screening programs, which can lead to much earlier diagnosis and treatment. Genetic testing is therefore a vital tool in preventing and managing ovarian cancer.

At the FGIH we firmly believe in the saying “knowledge is power, and prevention is better than a cure”. We are supporting Ovarian Cancer Awareness month by taking £50 off the price of the highly accurate, NHS approved, genetic Breast and Gynaecological Cancer panel. All counselling included.
