Hi Rochellec13! I would recommend you meet with a genetic counselor if you haven't yet. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) states that with a RAD51C mutation there is unknown or insufficient evidence for breast cancer risk but an increased risk of ovarian cancer. They state to "consider a Risk Reducing Salpingo Oophorectomy (RRSO) at 45-50 y". This age recommendation can change based on family history. The surgery can be done laparoscopically and has a relatively short downtime. I help run a support group through Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered (FORCE) and we meet regularly at the Dan Abraham Healthy Living Center (DAHLC). Our next meeting is June 6th at 7pm. We would love to have you!
