Gyno Gab: Your Chance Of Gynecologic Cancer

We track the major female reproductive cancers by a woman's lifetime risk of actually getting invasive disease
1/8: Brest Cancer
1/38 Endometrial (uterine lining) Cancer
1/70 Ovarian Cancer
1/135 Cervical Cancer
Interestingly, about 7% of the women getting pap smears in any year are abnormal. This is a far greater rate than the rate of actual invasive disease. So remember: if you get a call that your pap was abnormal, do follow your gyno's recommendations, but your chance of invasive disease, as you see, is still relatively remote.
