Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. Although risk of the disease is similar in both men and women, the myth that colon cancer is primarily a male disease seems to persist. As a result, studies have found that women are less likely to undergo preventative screenings for colon cancer. In this episode of Advance with MUSC Health, Colleen Donahue, MD, discusses prevention, diagnosis and treatment options for colorectal health in women.
