It’s a question many of my patients ask—and it's an important one. 🧠

Here’s the truth: Endometriosis is not cancer, and for most women, it never becomes cancer.

But in rare cases (less than 1%), some types of endometriosis—especially long-standing ovarian endometriomas—may turn into ovarian cancer. 💡

The good news? With timely diagnosis, advanced imaging, and robotic precision surgery, we can treat deep or complex endometriosis safely—and monitor risk factors closely.

Your health is too important to leave to Google myths.

Ever wondered what keeps doctors going day after day, patient after patient?
It's not just medicine.
It’s commitment, sacrifice, and a heart that never gives up. ❤

choose care even when it's thankless,
and heal because it's their calling.
To all the doctors making a difference
Thank you. 🩺💜

✨ Honoured to be invited as a panelist at the Oncology Update 2025 held on 8th June, an initiative by MOC Cancer Care & Research Centre in collaboration with IMA Mumbai West.
🧬 As a Robotic Gynecological Onco-surgeon, I had the opportunity to speak on the evolving landscape of organ-preserving surgeries in gynecologic oncology an approach that not only focuses on cancer control but also safeguards a woman’s quality of life, reproductive potential, and long-term well-being.
While robotic-assisted surgery remains a valuable tool in our armamentarium, the focus of the session was on making cancer treatment more precise, patient centered, and less morbid through organ-sparing techniques.
💡 It was an insightful platform bringing together experts to discuss advancements in oncology and collaborative approaches to improving patient care.
🙏 Grateful to be part of this meaningful exchange of ideas in the field of cancer care.

Ovarian cancer is often called the “mystery cancer” — but do you know why?
Because its early symptoms are subtle — bloating, fatigue, back pain — things we often brush off. 😓
But these “normal” signs can sometimes be your body’s silent warning. 🚨

Here are symptoms you shouldn’t ignore:
👉 Constant bloating
👉 Feeling full quickly
👉 Tiredness or unexplained weight loss
👉 Lower back or pelvic pain
👉 Changes in periods
👉 Frequent urination

There’s no standard screening test for ovarian cancer.
But awareness and regular checkups can truly save lives.

🟣 Early detection = up to 90% survival
⚠️ Late diagnosis = tough treatment

LIFE DOESN’T COME WITH A MANUAL — IT COMES WITH A MOTHER. 💖

As a gynecologist, I’ve seen countless mothers put their families first — every single time.

But this Mother's Day, let’s pause and do something different.
Let’s ask her how she’s feeling.
Let’s listen — really listen — if she says she’s in pain, tired, or uncomfortable.
Let’s not brush off her symptoms as “normal” or “age-related.”

👉 It’s time to put her needs first.
👉 It’s time to prioritise her health, just like she’s always prioritised ours.

Let this be a reminder — strong women deserve strong support.

💐 To all the mothers who gave us everything:
Let us give you the care you truly deserve.
