Cancer is the leading cause of death in Japan.
Statistics on cancer (Cancer Registry * Vital Statistics Survey 2005) show that early detection and early treatment improve the survival rate of cancer. According to an estimate by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, the lifetime risk of developing cancer is 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women.
As women's lifestyles change dramatically, it is important to live a healthy, bright and fulfilling life throughout their lives. Osaka City will strive to provide new information such as consultations, medical examinations, and medical care through the health information website for women.
