New data shows ovarian cancer often spotted too late for treatment Target Ovarian Cancer has found that as many as one in every five women (20 per cent) in England is too ill to treat by the time they receive their ovarian cancer diagnosis, according to data released this week.
Just weeks of living with the disease undiagnosed can make the difference in determining whether a woman is well enough to be able to undergo treatment. As a result, delays in diagnosis, which are common in ovarian cancer, can leave too many women reaching hospital cancer specialists when it’s too late.
