September 23rd is Teal Talk Day. Each year, over 249,000 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer worldwide (represented by the color teal.) So, gather your friends, wear teal and help spread awareness.

One way to honor Teal Talk Day is to reach out to a group of friends - and not just women. Men have mothers, wives, daughters, and sisters who are at risk for ovarian cancer. They may benefit from the Teal Talk, too. Since no standard screening exists for ovarian cancer, awareness gives us our best defense.

Make sure to share information about the symptoms that could indicate a need to see a doctor:

• Persistent bloating

• Lack of energy

• Loss of appetite

• Feeling fuller sooner.

Whether you have a talk with friends and family, send an email or post something on your social media accounts, commemorate Teal Talk Day by emphasizing early detection improves survival rates by 90%.
