Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

Teal ribbons have been places on posts and trees around Oak Forest to celebrate National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Ovarian cancer is often difficult to treat because there is no early detection test for this disease. Women are encouraged to become aware of symptoms which may include: trouble eating or feeling full quickly, abdominal pain or bloating, unusual fatigue, or back pain. Symptoms which persist two weeks or longer should be evaluated by a physician.
