Top 10 Early Signs of Ovarian Cancer, Are They Real?

Not true. Ovarian cancer is a kind of gynecological malignant disease with malignant tumor foci located in women’s ovaries, which seriously endangers women’s health and their lives. Ovarian cancer can be divided into ovarian epithelial cancer and ovarian malignant germ cell tumor. As the ovary is located deep in the pelvis, epithelial ovarian cancer often has no specific clinical symptoms in its early stage, and most of the patients are already in the advanced stage when they are diagnosed. However, the early stage of ovarian malignant germ cell tumor will present with symptoms such as abdominal distension, abdominal mass, fever, acute abdomen and so on. In conclusion, the so-called ten signs of ovarian cancer in early stage is inaccurate. Most patients do not have obvious symptoms in the early stage. It is recommended that women should have regular medical checkups in order to have a chance to diagnose and treat ovarian cancer at an early stage.
