Analysis of the risk factors of ovarian cancer

ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors of ovarian cancer.

MethodsNinety patients with ovarian cancer and 270 healthy volunteers were divided into the observation group and control group, respectively.The clinical data in two groups were investigated.

ResultsThe differences of the age, marital status and educational level between two groups were not statistically significant(P>0.05).The ratios of the no delivery, menstrual cycle >30 days, menarche age < 13 years old, abortion history and ovarian cancer family history in observation group were 56.67%, 46.67%, 62.22%, 36.67% and 23.33%, respectively, and which were significantly higher than those in control group(P < 0.05 to P < 0.01).The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the delivery times ≥2 and menarche age ≥13 years were the protective factors of ovarian cancer(P < 0.01), and the menstrual cycle >30 days, abortion history and family history of ovarian cancer were the risk factors of ovarian cancer(P < 0.01).

ConclusionsThe occurrence of ovarian cancer is influenced by many factors, and the preventive measures should be made according to the relevant risk factors.
