Ovarian cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the ovaries, which are part of the female reproductive system. In Enlli's case, it progressed to stage 3, meaning it had spread beyond the ovaries. Early diagnosis can be tricky, as symptoms are often vague and can be dismissed, as initially happened to Enlli.
