20 Buildings around Ireland shone their lights in Teal for World Ovarian Cancer Day, 8th May 2022 to raise awareness of Ovarian Cancer. Ireland has one of the highest death rates from ovarian cancer in Europe. Early diagnosis can significantly improve survival #NoWomanLeftBehind

The symptoms of ovarian cancer are difficult to recognise and could be mistaken for irritable bowel BUT if you are over 50, getting irritable bowel for the first time would be unusual. Read the Belfast Telegraph to learn more. #WOCD2022 #NoWomanLeftBehind m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/life/health/se…

Thank you @happyvulvaclub for sharing this. Cervical screening is really important for checking your cervical health, but many people believe that it also checks for #OvarianCancer. This isn't the case. There is no screening for ovarian cancer. #CervicalScreeningAwarenessWeek

Fancy a dip for World GO Day. We swam on Sunday at Helen's Bay, Co Down. Swimming is good fun and the message for this World GO day is, a little bit of exercise will help maintain a healthier weight and reduce your risk of uterine cancer. #Swim4GOday #GOforPrevention #WorldGODay
