Women agonize over cancer; we take as a personal threat the lump in every friend's breast.

But now we have firm data showing we should use (it) in most women with advanced ovarian cancer who have had successful surgery to remove the bulk of their tumor.

This may tip the scales for some of those women. We could have significantly fewer cases of breast cancer in this country.

Deaths from cervical cancer could drop even lower if more women routinely had a Pap test. Because cervical cancer produces no symptoms in the early stage, regular screening is extremely important.

Women with breast cancer almost universally die from it within 10 years if they don't get treated, ... It's quite different with prostate cancer. Many, if not most, men will live over 10 years with prostate cancer.

They're great because we're seeing younger and younger women, with breast cancer and it's not a sentence. They don't detach until you take it off so they can wear their tank tops and their strapless gowns.
