Q: i was diagnosed with ovarian cancer with the removal of my left ovary. i m 19 years old. what precautions should i take in my future?? can i will get pregnant without any complications?

Glad you're better: At your age (19), it's likely that your tumor was a dysgerminoma, which is almost always curable with today's methods, or a granulosa cell tumor which is not very aggressive -- if in fact your tumor was really a cancer. There's nothing special to do afterwards and probably you'll be able to become a mother if the other ovary is good and it is your wish.

Q: mom, lewy body dementia, end stage ovarian cancer, hospice will not treat dementia, (moving faster) meds make dementia worse, hospice can not take care?

Question 1

how long does ovarian cancer take to develop into stage 3/4?

This hard question: Ovarian cancer, as well as any other type of cancer, is also graded, apart from staged. The histologic grade of a tumor measures how abnormal or malignant its cells look under the microscope.[42] there are four grades indicating the likelihood of the cancer to spread and the higher the grade, the more likely for this to occur. Grade 0 is used to describe non-invasive tumors.  Read below?
