Trends in the Incidence of Ovarian Cancer Among Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women in the United States, 2001 to 2021
The IR of ovarian cancer in the US declined significantly among postmenopausal compared to premenopausal women, for whom the IR of ovarian cancer decreased only slightly. Although encouraging, these findings show a need for continued efforts to improve early detection and prevention strategies to mitigate the burden of this deadly disease.
