Ovarian cancer, or cancer of the ovaries, is one of the most common types of cancer in women.
The ovaries are a pair of small organs located low in the tummy that are connected to the womb and store a woman’s supply of eggs.
Ovarian cancer mainly affects women who have been through the menopause (usually over the age of 50), but it can sometimes affect younger women.
Symptoms:
Common symptoms of ovarian cancer include:
– feeling constantly bloated
– swollen tummy
– discomfort in your tummy or pelvic area
– feeling full quickly when eating
– needing to pee more often than normal
The symptoms aren’t always easy to recognise because they’re similar to those of some more common conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
