Ivermectin is not an approved or recommended treatment for ovarian cancer. It is not part of standard ovarian cancer care, and there isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to support its use for ovarian cancer at this time.

If you're looking into alternative or additional treatment options, some worth discussing with your oncologist include:

- Chemotherapy (e.g., carboplatin, paclitaxel)
- PARP inhibitors (e.g., olaparib, niraparib)
- Antibody-drug conjugates (e.g., mirvetuximab soravtansine)
- Clinical trials — your doctor can help identify ones you may be eligible for

It's always best to speak with your healthcare provider before trying anything new, as some substances can interfere with your current treatments or cause unexpected side effects.
