Did you know?

Every 7 minutes a woman is diagnosed with a gynecologic cancer; an estimated 82,000 cases will be diagnosed in the US this year alone.   Ovarian cancer alone ranks fifth as a cause of cancer deaths among women, the deadliest cancer of the female reproductive system. However, if detected early, there are many successful treatment options for ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer is not a "silent killer" – it does have symptoms and risk factors and treatment options. Lilies of the Valley is organized to help educate women about these cancers, and to support those who already have them.
