Abstract
Obesity increases the risk of ovarian cancer, and it is associated with the poor prognosis of ovarian cancer. Its pathogenic mechanism may be associated with the increased level of serum estrogen, insulin and insulin-like growth factors-1 induced by obesity and a variety of adipocytokines, which has an impact on the therapeutic result and prognosis of ovarian cancer. Maintaining a proper weight may prevent the development of ovarian cancer. Key words: Obesity; Ovarian neoplasms; Body mass index
