Why is World Gynecologic Oncology Day needed? 🤔 In short: 💜Too many are unaware of the (tbh—often vague/confusing!) symptoms. 💜Too many are too embarrassed about their symptoms to consult a doctor. 💜 Too much stigma associated with cancer & and women’s bodies.

You’re doing a lot for others. How about a 🎁 for yourself? If you notice gyn cancer symptoms that last for 2 weeks or longer, give yourself something more important than anything you’ll find under the 🎄 & ask a dr about what you’ve noticed. 💜 #womenshealth

It’s been one month since World Gynecologic Oncology Day 2025 and the results are in 📊 This year’s campaign was by far our biggest yet!💜 We are so grateful to everyone who participated! #WorldGODay2025 #gynonc #gyncancer @EngageEsgo @ESGO_society

You know your body best.🩵 👀👀If you notice something unusual, like bloating, feeling full too quickly after eating, or changes in how often you need to use the bathroom, get it checked out. When ovarian cancer is detected early, it is easier to treat.

💊リムパーザ（オラパリブ）の飲み方🧪 リムパーザは「朝・夕の食後」に飲む薬ではありません。毎日、必ず12時間おきに、同じ時間に飲んでください。 例：7時と19時、8時と20時のように12時間あけるタイミングで決めます。 ⚠️飲み忘れたときの対応⚠️ ☑️飲み忘れてから”2時間以内”であれば、気づいた時点で服用してください。 ☑️2時間以上遅れた場合は、その回は服用せずスキップしてください。次の回は通常どおりの時間に飲みます。 ☑️飲み忘れた回数は次回の受診時に必ず主治医に報告し、処方量の調整など指示を受けてください。 🕰️飲み忘れ防止の工夫🕰️ ☑️音が出ない振動式のタイマー付きリストバンドや目覚ましを使うと便利です。価格はおおよそ2000円前後からあります。 ☑️生活が不規則（夜勤や3交代制など）の方は、職場の上司に相談して服薬の理解を得てください。必要なら主治医に診療情報提供やお手紙を書いてもらい、職場での配慮を求めましょう。 🔔医療者への確認🔔 最近、リムパーザを「食後に飲む薬」と誤って説明されている例が患者会で多く報告されています。処方時や会計時に不安がある方は、薬剤師さんにもう一度正しい飲み方（12時間ごと・決まった時間）を説明してもらってください。

We are proud to support the Cancer Patients Europe Position Paper on Defining Unmet Medical Needs. 💜 The definition of Unmet Medical Need (UMN) will play a decisive role in how research is prioritised, how innovation is incentivised, and how patients gain timely access to new therapies. A narrow or static definition risks limiting innovation and delaying access to life-saving or quality-of-life-improving treatments, especially in oncology. Together with Cancer Patients Europe & other co-signatories, ENGAGe & ESGO call for a broad, flexible, and patient-centred definition of UMN that reflects not only medical but also patient and societal perspectives. This is crucial to ensure that both breakthrough & incremental innovations continue to improve outcomes for people living with cancer. 📖Read the full paper here 👉 engage.esgo.org/media/2025/1… #gynonc #gyncancer #oncoalert

Olivia, our digital support tool for all those affected by ovarian cancer, was launched in Greece recently! A diagnosis of ovarian cancer can be overwhelming and confusing, and we recognise that many newly diagnosed patients, and those already living with ovarian cancer, want to understand their cancer as much as possible and have support at their fingertips. Language should not be a barrier to anyone understanding this disease. Visit Olivia today to access articles, videos, and an interactive clinical pathway and resource library. Olivia is now available in English 🇬🇧, Turkish 🇹🇷, German 🇨🇭🇦🇹 🇩🇪, Italian 🇮🇹 and Greek 🇬🇷.
