Ovarian Cancer: Resources


PCOS Support ResourcesApproximately one in 70 women in the United States will develop ovarian cancer, a serious disease that kills nearly 15,000 women every year (1). The main cause of ovarian cancer is attributed to a genetic predisposition to the disease. The diagnosis of ovarian cancer is difficult and the symptoms are often vague. If you have questions about ovarian cancer, you should speak with your doctor about a diagnostic work-up.

Unfortunately, the conditions that lead to the development of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, as well as some of the medical problems linked to PCOS, may also set the stage for ovarian cancer. Studies have linked the occurrence of ovarian cancer in women with the consumption of diets high in refined carbohydrates (2). Such diets are prevalent among PCOS sufferers and contribute to the underlying Insulin Resistance that causes Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.



Insulin Resistance has also been linked to breast cancer and studies suggest it is a significant risk factor for development of the disease (3). Other recent research indicates that women who suffer from infertility may have an increased risk of developing cancer (4). As infertility is a common result of PCOS, there may be a relationship between Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and ovarian cancer.

Although there is no definitive study that proves that PCOS and ovarian cancer are linked, this recent research continues to stress the importance of addressing Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and its underlying Insulin Resistance. Ovarian cancer sufferers have a 50% survival rate after five years (5).

Learn about a system designed to reverse PCOS
"I started taking Insulite PCOS system in early November 2005 after hearing about you through the internet and by the end of December I was pregnant. I am just thrilled that I have been so lucky and don't know what I would have done if I hadn't discovered Insulite and I want to thank you all very much for helping me achieve my wish."

PCOS a Leading Cause of Infertility
"I have been on the Insulite PCOS system for a little over 3 months now and it is truly a miracle. I feel energized, healthy, and most importantly: normal. A couple of months ago I decided to go off the birth control pill just to see if I could get a period on my own. I'm on my 2nd consecutive menstrual cycle which hasn't happened since I was a teenager or without the help of birth control pills. I'm currently 30 years old and am having periods on my own, Amazing! I never thought this would happen. Especially since both my daughters were conceived with the help of Glucophage and Clomid.

Thank you to all of those who have taken the time and energy to put together a system that can help people feel normal and enjoy life the way you should. Not to mention all the ingredients in the Insulite PCOS System are healthy and can be taken without having any negative side effects. I'm forever in debt!"

"In three weeks I have lost 3 pounds, my sugar level has dropped about 10 points on average, my face has cleared up dramatically, and I feel a lot better overall.

"I have told everyone I know about your product and I have been a walking billboard this week! I have had several compliments on my new found appearance...color in my checks, very little acne and my face looks great and even with just 3 pounds gone people are asking me if I have lost weight !

"I think that every woman that even thinks she may have PCOS needs to know about your products. Especially the women who have been told that they cannot have children because of infertility from PCOS. Every woman should have the joy of having a child and with PCOS that is a very rare occasion.

"I believe in your product and I would like to get it out there so women will have a choice."

"Your internet site has been so educational and made me realize that I'm not going mad and there is a way to control this PCOS.

Although I have never met any of your staff I feel that I get more positive response from you all than my doctors for the last five years.

I'm just so grateful for your organization. You have given me so much hope and something to look forward to. I feel as if I'm dealing with professionals who care about what happens to their patient."

As women it's vital for us to look good and feel good. It's part of our make up; it's what makes us thrive. This is not about being vain - this is about well being and confidence."

"For obese PCOS women weight loss of more than 5% of pretreatment weight restores menstrual regularity in 89%, of whom 30% achieved spontaneous pregnancy."
Saleh AM, Khalil HS. Review of non-surgical and surgical treatment and the role of insulin-sensitizing agents in the management of infertile women with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand. 2004 Jul;83(7):614-621.
"I just recently started the program and can already tell a difference. The acne I've been plagued with since my early teens is almost completely gone and my facial hair hasn't grown out at all this week. On top of all that, I have also made changes in my diet and exercise and have lost 10 lbs. already!"

"Until I found your web site, I never realized that there were alternatives to surgery or that Insulin Resistance was the cause of PCOS. Everything finally made sense to me."

"So far I am very, very happy with my results. Per my hairdresser I have new hair coming in. The greatest things to me are I have had 4 cycles all on my own and my sex drive is increasing!"
