Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used raw material that can be detected both in the environment and in the human body. Due to its estrogen-like effects, wide concerns have been raised about the potential role of BPA in the initiation and development of hormone-dependent cancers. Ovarian cancer is the most common reproductive system cancer and has a high mortality rate in women.
