A comprehensive review was performed for the identification of female-specific cancer from 1st January 1980 up to 31st May 2016. Overall, the risk of breast cancer was noticed to be the highest among Chinese women (RD 0.42, CI 0.41 - 0.43). Malay women were noticed to have a 22.0% higher likelihood of breast cancer than Indian women (RD 0.22, CI 0.21 - 0.22), but 20% lower than Chinese women (RD -0.20, CI -0.21 -0.19). Cervical cancer was ranked second in Malaysia, with an average ASR of 17.3. Indians had the lowest risk of developing cervical cancer as compared to Malays (RD 0.22, CI 0.18 - 0.26) and Chinese (RD 0.46, CI 0.41 - 0.51). Ovarian cancer was ranked fourth among Malaysians with an average ASR of 7.3 over the seven-year cancer registry. Indians had a lower ovarian cancer risk than Chinese (RD 0.29, CI 0.27 - 0.31) and Malays (RD 0.36, CI 0.34 - 0.38). In 2008, endometrial cancer was ranked sixth in the most-occurring cancers among Malaysian females (average ASR 6.5). Malay females were noticed to have a slightly lower risk of corpus uteri carcinoma than Chinese women (RD -0.06, CI -0.09 -0.03), but are at a higher risk than Indian women (RD 0.25, CI 0.23, - 0.28). The age group of 50-59 has the peak incidence for breast cancer and cervical cancer. Endometrial cancer incidence peaked in the age group of 60-69 years while ovarian cancer incidence rose sharply after the age of 40 years.
