Epithelial ovarian cancer: is the most frequent type of ovarian cancer, accounting for 85% to 89% of cases. The epithelial cells on the ovary’s surface are where it develops.
Germ cell ovarian cancer: It makes up just around 5% of cases of ovarian cancer, making it a rare kind. The cells that make the eggs in the ovaries are where germ cell cancers begin. This cancer typically affects just one ovary and is most prevalent in adolescent girls and young women.
Stromal cell ovarian cancer: begins in the tissues that hold the ovarian tissues together and make female hormones. 10% of ovarian cancers and 5- 10% of breast cancers are caused by the often hereditary disorder known as familial breast-ovarian cancer syndrome. Study shows a connection between ovarian and breast cancer. Each woman who has experienced one of these cancers is more likely to experience the other.
