Ovarian cancer is tricky to detect because the symptoms, including bloating, abdominal discomfort, and difficulty eating, can signal a variety of conditions.
A woman is considered at higher risk for developing ovarian cancer if:
• Her family has a history of ovarian, breast, uterine or, colorectal cancer
• She is over 50 years of age
• She has a genetic mutation associated with this cancer
Speak to your doctor if you notice new symptoms that persist for more than three weeks or suspect ovarian cancer.
