Depending on the histological structure, ovarian cancer is divided into serous carcinoma, endometrioid carcinoma, mucinous carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, Brenner malignancy, transitional cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, mixed epithelial carcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma.

Symptoms of ovarian cancer:

general intoxication
frequent urge to urinate
diarrhea, which may alternate with constipation
abdominal pain, mainly in the lower regions

Risk factors:

The likelihood of developing the disease is influenced by:

age-related changes in the tissue of the female reproductive glands
endometriosis
smoking and alcohol
unfavorable heredity and genetic predisposition
obesity

early puberty and longer duration of the childbearing period
pre-treatment of infertility

“I recommend consulting with a specialist once a year for cancer screening – a research to diagnose cancer in asymptomatic stages and minimize the risk of cancer.”

When you live calmly for yourself … work … and dream of a new red dress ..and a trip to the sea …. it’s hard to imagine the emotions of a person who one fine Monday hears his terrible diagnosis of CANCER! You still hope this is a mistake and everything will be fine. You get up in the morning, get yourself in order. The son walks to kindergarten. But there are moments like this .. You, realizing that everything now depends on you, gather yourself to pieces and tell yourself that this is a joke of fate that will soon end. Doctors are people who are both friends and enemies. You will be angry, but there are no culprits.
My story began with various doctors, tests, tests ….
Thank God that fate has given me such a person who has become my friend. This friend is Valikhnovskaya Kateryna Hennadiivna. A person who gives hope and strengthens faith in the heart. I sincerely thank Mrs. Kateryna for her support, help and kind words in difficult times.
I wish you well 🙌 I believe that there are good people, and most of them. Inspiration to you in work! And long life!

I would like to thank my doctor of the AA Shalimov Institute of Surgery and Transplantology Valikhnovska Kateryna Hennadiivna for her professionalism and sensitive attitude. She is not only a doctor from God, she knows how to inspire hope in a person’s recovery. She told me that you can only jump on the positive side. The stitches have healed, the memory of the difficult postoperative days is erased, but when it’s hard for me, I remember: you can only jump on the positive side.
Thank you Kateryna Gennadyevna for your ability to save people not only with a scalpel, but also with words, care and warmth.
Be blessed in all your deeds.
