Longtime CNN journalist, Christiane Amanpour, is undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer.
She used the moment to urge women to educate themselves on the disease, which she noted affects millions of women around the world.
"I am telling you this in the interest of transparency, but in truth, really mostly as a shout out to early diagnosis to urge women to educate themselves on this disease and to get all the regular screenings and scans you can, to always listen to your bodies and of course to ensure that your legitimate medical concerns are not dismissed or diminished," she said.
