What can women at the highest risk of ovarian cancer do to lower that risk? In this episode, Dr. Barbara “Menopause” Taylor explores the most effective prevention strategies for epithelial ovarian cancer, focusing on women with inherited genetic risk.

Dr. Taylor explains why surgery remains the gold standard for risk reduction, walks through the different surgical options, and compares the benefits and trade-offs of each. She also puts these life-changing decisions into perspective, helping listeners understand who benefits most and why prevention is never one-size-fits-all.

If you've ever wondered how doctors approach ovarian cancer prevention—or how to weigh difficult choices before cancer ever develops—this episode provides a clear, practical guide to understanding your options.
