Body image is a consistently reported concern for #cancer patients of all genders and ages - and it is NOT just limited to obvious physical scars.
It’s hard to cover everything in one article, but @writeouschick and @EverydayHealth did a great job. Check it out!

Raising awareness through social media posts are impactful for those learning about #ostomy: “Let me see: Is anyone hashtagging ‘ostomy?’’’ I typed in “ostomy” and saw that there are so many of us!" You are not alone. everydayhealth.com/colon-can…

On #GenealogyDay, make note of your family's health history. Genetic mutations, like BRCA1/2, can be passed down from either side and they can put you at increased risk of #OvarianCancer.

#OvarianCancer DOES have symptoms, but they are often overlooked or attributed to other causes. If a woman experiences any of the symptoms in this image for two or more weeks, she should contact her doctor.
Retweet to help us spread critical awareness.

Low-grade serous ovarian cancer is a rare subtype of ovarian cancer, but it's not rare to our Dr. David Gershenson.
He shares what to know about risk factors, symptoms and treatment options: fal.cn/3seXh @RareOvarCancers @EverydayHealth #OvarianCancer #EndCancer

To commemorate #NationalHereditaryCancerWeek (Sept 25 – Oct 1, + #NationalPrevivorDay (Sept 28), we're sharing the story of @JenniferGaram, who w/ no known history of hereditary breast or ovarian cancer, discovered that she was BRCA1-positive. l8r.it/QN8d #InHerWords

#OvarianCancer is often called a “silent killer” because symptoms can be overlooked. But, survivors like @JenniferGaram are anything but silent as they share their journeys and spread awareness.
This #OCAM, help us spread awareness by sharing these posts! #NotSilent
