Women with a significant Family History of breast and Ovarian Cancer, firstdegree relatives like a mom or a sister with breast or Ovarian Cancer or a personal history of ovarian karngs fallopian tube cancer or a Breast Cancer at a young age, earlier than age 40 all qualify without question for genetic testing. Also, if you have a Family Member whos tested positive for one of these genetic alterations you would also qualify. Now, once someone qualifies for the procedure and appears to be a good candidate for it the next obvious question is the cost and whether insurance would cover it. Well genetic testing is a blood test. That is usually covered, again, if you have those qualifications i just mentioned. And if not, it can be relatively expensive. 70 0 to 2,000. Again, when you have a significant Family History you generally do qualify. Your Insurance Company generally does pay for it. If someone wants to decrease their chances of getting breast or Ovarian Cancer are there alternatives to such a drastic surgery . Are there other options here . Yes, there are. First, maintain a good weight healthy weight, is a great way to lower your risk. Another way to lower your risk of Ovarian Cancer specifically is Birth Control pills. Five years of Birth Control pills can lower the risk of Ovarian Cancer by 50 . Ten years of Birth Control pills can lower it by 70 . Great information. We cannot stress enough, though that concerned patients should definitely talk with their doctors about their own Family History and possibly a genetic counselor. Dr. Holtz, thank you for your time.
