February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.

Each year in Australia around 1,900 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. In the image below you will find information about some of the signs and symptoms to be aware of.

At the Women’s Imaging Group, we understand how crucial early detection is for ovarian cancer. A pelvic ultrasound can be used to assess the ovaries and surrounding pelvic organs. It plays an important role in:
✔️ Visualising the ovaries and uterus
✔️ Identifying cysts, masses, or structural changes
✔️ Helping guide further investigation when needed

Our experienced sonographers perform comprehensive pelvic ultrasound examinations using high quality imaging techniques to support accurate assessment and clinical decision making.

🕯️Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day🕯️

Today, we pause to honour and remember the little lives that were deeply loved but gone too soon.

At Kogarah Women's Imaging we are privileged to share in some of the most joyful moments of our patients’ journeys, but we also know that not every story has the ending that was hoped for. Our hearts go out to the families who have experienced the unimaginable loss of a baby during pregnancy, birth or infancy.

Kogarah Women's Imaging pride ourselves on providing a respectful and caring environment during these times.

It's important to ask the ones you love if they are OK. Not just today, but ANY day. Keep on asking too. You never know when someone who is struggling in silence might just decide to open up.

The conversations can feel difficult, but they can make such a difference.
