58yo Female: She Says Having Mumps was Immunoprotective for Ovarian Cancer - Is that a thing?

At 38yo, she was diagnosed with cysts in both ovaries. Citing cancer risk, her doctor advised removal. She postponed having them removed, asserting that her risk of ovarian cancer was low due to her cancer-free family history, and her personal history of a strong case of mumps as a child. (Actually the research shows that is a thing!)  Over the next decade, cysts grew larger, and at 49yo she had both ovaries removed... and then hot flashes, acne rosaceae and feeling hyped all the time became her new status quo. This case demonstrates use of rubrics about the ovaries!
