Inadequate breastfeeding also increases the risk of ovarian cancer.

Intake of hormone replacement therapy after menopause increases the risk of ovarian cancer and consumption of birth control pills decreases the risk.

Increasing obesity is also a risk factor, therefore, regular physical activity may help in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer.
