Every day 46 Australian women are diagnosed with a gynaecological or breast cancer.
Cancer is a disease of the body's building blocks - or cells.
Cancer happens when genes become damaged and the cells begin to grow abnormally and out of control. Cancer isn't one single disease, but a range of diseases in which abnormal cells multiply and spread out of control affecting a range of body organs.
Cancer prevention is often about awareness and finding reliable information.
Women dealing with gynaecological cancers often have specific needs and questions about their diagnosis and treatment options.
If you have questions about your own cancer experience please call Cancer Council Helpline 13 11 20
Girls Night In raises money that helps answer these and other questions about women's cancers. It's also a great opportunity to talk about your own experience and fill in some knowledge gaps.
