    The present research defined as a critical review, with the title: Obesity in women over 15 years of age as a predisposing factor for ovarian cancer, aimed to identify the direct and indirect relationship of obesity and its influence on the onset of ovarian cancer in pre- and post-menopausal women. The Evidence-Based Nutrition (Cloud) methodology was used. The information search was carried out in PUBMED, HINARI, MEDLINE, SCIELO, SCOPUS and SCIENCE DIRECT, finding 78 articles, of which 30 were selected that have been evaluated through the CASPE critical reading tool, finally selecting the Systematic Review entitled Obesity and risk of ovarian cancer: a systematic review, which has a level of evidence IIA and Grade of Strong Recommendation, according to the expertise of the researcher. The critical commentary allowed us to conclude that more research is needed to determine the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to the risk of ovarian cancer in obese women. However, there is evidence available that links obesity with some histological subtypes of ovarian cancer. More studies are needed to establish this relationship by histological subtypes of ovarian cancer related to obesity.
