Whether it's ovarian, uterine, cervical, vaginal, or vulvar cancer, the emotional and physical toll is profound. At The Lewin Fund to Fight Women's Cancers, Dr. Sharyn Lewin, a board-certified Gynecologic Oncologist, is dedicated to providing compassionate care, cutting-edge treatment, and comprehensive support to empower women in their fight against these cancers.

Understanding Gynecologic Cancers

Gynecologic cancers encompass a range of malignancies that affect a woman's reproductive system. Understanding these cancers is the first step in prevention, early detection, and effective treatment.

Types of Gynecologic Cancers

1. Ovarian Cancer: Often diagnosed at a later stage due to subtle symptoms, making awareness crucial.
2. Uterine (Endometrial) Cancer: Most common in postmenopausal women, with symptoms like abnormal bleeding.
3. Cervical Cancer: Strongly linked to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, preventable through vaccination and screening.
4. Vulvar and Vaginal Cancers: Less common but significant, affecting the external and internal female genitalia.
