Which of the following conditions is recognized as a disability under the ADA?

Ovarian cancer is recognized as a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) because it significantly restricts one or more major life activities. The ADA defines a disability as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a person's ability to perform important life activities, such as caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, and other essential functions. Ovarian cancer, being a serious medical condition, has a considerable impact on an individual's life and can affect their ability to engage in various activities.

In contrast, job-related stress may lead to temporary issues but does not typically meet the ADA's criteria for a disability, as it can vary greatly in severity and is often not considered a physical or mental impairment. Temporary flu symptoms are not usually viewed as substantial limitations on major life activities. Similarly, complications from cosmetic surgery are also generally considered temporary and not likely to impose long-term restrictions, thus failing to qualify under the ADA's definition of a disability.
