About the Study

This study is seeking information about the personal experiences of uterine and ovarian cancer prevention and screening for people with Lynch syndrome. An online survey will allow participants to share their experiences which will ultimately help medical practitioners be more aware about the wants, needs, and decision-making strategies used by people with Lynch syndrome to preserve their gynecological health. 

NOTE: This study is closed.

What the Study Involves

This study will collect online survey results anonymously from eligible participants about general demographic information, personal and family medical history related to Lynch syndrome, current gynecological decision-making strategies, and current knowledge about Lynch syndrome.

If you choose to participate in the study, you will only need to complete the survey once and there will be no additional follow up surveys to complete. The survey will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete and, once completed, you will be given the option to enter your email address to be entered into a raffle to receive one of ten $20 Amazon electronic gift cards. If chosen, gift cards will be distributed to the email address provided no later than June 2023.
