Doctors always say to make sure after a certain age to be screened for certain types of cancers. Screening for ovarian cancer, may have done more worse than good and has since lead to many more false positives and no decrease in mortality rates; however, this does not apply to breast cancer screenings. With all the false positives then leading to unnecessary surgeries that in itself would seem like it would increase the mortality rates. And the continuing screening studies will bring significant evidence to NOT get screened for ovarian cancer.
