Presenter Samia Afreen reveals 2nd cancer diagnosis

Presenter Samia Afreen, who has been battling cancer since 2022, has revealed that she was diagnosed with a malignant tumour for second time three months ago.

This time, Samia was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and underwent surgery immediately. Subsequent tests identified the tumour as a ‘high-grade carcinoma’, for which she is now receiving chemotherapy.

The presenter shared details of her latest battle with cancer in a Facebook post on August 23, alongside a video showing her new short haircut.

“Just three months ago, a second malignant tumour was detected in my body-ovarian cancer. I had to undergo surgery immediately. Unfortunately, it was a high-grade carcinoma, so I now have to go through chemotherapy,” she wrote.

While Samia has been undergoing cancer treatment for several years, this is her first experience with chemotherapy. Following her initial diagnosis, she was treated with immunotherapy.
