A large amount of data shows that a family history of ovarian cancer is the most important risk factor for ovarian cancer. Women with no family history of ovarian cancer have a lifetime risk of 1/70; if one first-degree relative is ill, the risk increases to 5%; if two first-degree relatives are ill, the risk is 7%. Tumors in other parts of the body (such as breast cancer, rectal cancer, endometrial cancer) may also be combined with ovarian cancer to form an overall tumor pattern in the family.

The characteristic of hereditary ovarian cancer syndrome is that it develops at an early age. The average age of onset of general ovarian cancer is 59 years old, while the average age of onset of this hereditary ovarian cancer is 52 years old. It is a hereditary disease caused by a major gene abnormality in the body and manifests as ovarian cancer. There are many genes involved, and the specific genes have not yet been fully determined.

Are ovarian tumors hereditary? I believe you have already understood the above content. For those female friends with a family history of ovarian tumors, it is important to pay attention to the prevention of ovarian tumors, especially married women over 45 years old, who should develop the good habit of going to the hospital for regular check-ups.
