About

ROAR is devoted to promoting Ovarian Cancer awareness.

In 2004, in the United States, 25,580 new cases were diagnosed and 16,090 women died of ovarian cancer. The risk increases with age and decreases with pregnancy. Lifetime risk is about 1.6%, but women with affected first-degree relatives have a 5% risk.

Through ROAR’s efforts, we hope to increase the awareness of this type of cancer and teach women the early warning signs of the disease.
