Are you aware of Lynch Syndrome?

Are you aware that it is a genetic predisposition to certain cancers and one of these is Ovarian cancer.

About 1 in 300 are affected...similar to BRCA.

It is an autosomal dominant disorder.

Only about 5% of those affected with this genetic defect are aware?

Are you sure it is not relevant?
