چکیده

The present study is an initiative to understand various related factors associated with ovarian cancer among millennials in India. The spark behind the present study after visiting various cancer patients in the locality motivated the author to work on the present study. In this regard, 12 hospitals approached and were able to collect some substantial data from the patients. Nine hypotheses were considered which were developed after the literature reviews. The results revealed that having children, having a mother with an ovarian cancer history, having a sister having ovarian cancer history, being obese, having late sleeping habits, and with IVF have a significant association with ovarian cancer and diabetics, smoking habits, and contraceptive pills do not have any direct association with ovarian cancer as opined by the participants.
