How so?
Risk factor (which way?)? Possible cause/effect (which way?)?
Some degree of association & if so how strong? What about bg relationship (if any) to other cancers?


It's actually well proven causation. Either high cortisol or insulin receptor defect or very high carb diets promote PCOS and ovarian cancer. PCOS, a precursor condition to ovarian cancer risk elevation is typically treated with a low carb diet, with or without metformin.

And I would add that high bg and the high insulin that often accompanies them in a T2 "feeds" cancer cells very well.
