If cancer runs in your family, your genes may hold answers. Some cancers can be passed down quietly. You may feel fine but still carry inherited risks for breast, ovarian, colon, or other cancers.

At CGHMC’s Institute of Pathology, we offer genetic cancer testing, including BRCA1/2 and full hereditary cancer panels, to help you and your doctor make informed choices early.

If you have a family history or ongoing health concerns, speak with your doctor about whether genetic testing is right for you. Book a doctor’s appointment at CGHMC by calling (02) 8711 4141 today.

SEVERE HEADACHE & MENSTRUAL PERIODS : It’s very common for migraine attacks to be linked to your periods (menstruation). This is thought to affect as many as two-thirds of women with migraine. Your oestrogen levels naturally fall in the days leading up to your period. This drop in oestrogen can make a migraine attack more likely. If you have menstrual migraine, you will usually have migraine attacks at other times of the month too. If you only have migraine attacks around the time of your periods, it’s known as ‘pure’ menstrual migraine. Keeping a diary of your attacks & working closely with your specialist is highly recommended.
