Ovarian cancer happens when normal cells in the ovary change into abnormal cells and grow out of control.
X
Ovarian cancer occurs most often in women ages 50 to 65, but can happen at any age. Sometimes ovarian cancer runs in families.
X
Symptoms of ovarian cancer can include:
- Your stomach getting bigger or feeling bloated
- Stomach pain
- Feeling full or having trouble eating
- Needing to urinate often or feeling like you suddenly need to urinate urgently
X
These symptoms are common, and in many cases are caused by conditions that are not ovarian cancer. But if you start having these symptoms and they continue for more than a day or 2, you should let your doctor or nurse know.
X
Many people have no symptoms of ovarian cancer, but learn they have it when a growth is found in or near one of their ovaries. 
X
This sometimes happens during a pelvic exam or an imaging test, like an ultrasound, that was done for another reason. If this happens, your doctor or nurse might then do more tests to check for ovarian cancer.
X
If your doctor suspects you have ovarian cancer, they might order 1 or more of the following:
1. Ultrasound 
2. Blood Tests
3. Surgery
X
In most cases, having surgery to remove the cancer is the first part of treatment. Further treatment will depend a lot on the stage of your cancer and your other medical problems.
X 
Some people might not need any further treatment after surgery. Others might need further treatment that includes chemotherapy.
X
If ovarian, breast, uterine, or colon cancer runs in your family, talk to your doctor. There might be things you can do to lower your risk of cancer.⁣
