September 9th is LGSOC Awareness Day
What is low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) awareness day?
STAAR is establishing LGSOC Awareness Day on September 9, 2024, as one day during Ovarian Cancer Awareness month when we bring the focus to low-grade serous ovarian cancer.
Because it is rare, it can be hard to find information specific to LGSOC. Many people living with LGSOC hadn’t heard of this rare ovarian cancer before their diagnosis. Your participation in LGSOC Awareness Day can help increase awareness of LGSOC symptoms and the need for more research.

You can also show support by participating in STAAR's annual Step Up America for Ovarian Cancer campaign in September, which is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
Throughout the month, we support individuals in creating their own events to fundraise for research and spread awareness about the symptoms of low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC). We welcome events as large as a city-wide 5k and as small as a group of friends getting together for coffee. This year we also have the Step Up America Step Challenge creating an easy way to participate for those who can't host an event!
All participants can also order a Step Up T-Shirt with common LGSOC symptoms on the back to help spread awareness!
