WHY IS AWARENESS NEEDED?
Alabama ranks as the #1 state with the highest rate of death from cervical cancer.
Alabama ranks 6th nationally in ovarian cancer mortality rates.
Ovarian cancer is the 5th leading cause of cancer deaths in women in the US.
There is no early detection/screening test for four of the five gynecologic cancers.
Women of all ages and all ethnicities are at risk and need to know the signs and symptoms of GYN cancers.
Groundbreaking research is happening throughout the State of Alabama.
