Ovarian Cancer and Chemotherapy
Kristina Rua, Patient Nurse Navigator with Miami Cancer Institute, says if the ovarian cancer is stage one or two, you can do fertility sparing. "If you do have to remove the uterus and the ovaries, they can do some type of fertility sparing or they can preserve some eggs and then look into surrogacy so that you can have biological children."
She also explains chemotherapy hits benign and malignant cells and it stops the reproduction of the cancer cell. "Chemotherapy is used in a big majority of our ovarian cancers."
