Further tests
One in 40 women in the UK will get ovarian cancer, usually aged between 50 and 80. Early symptoms are vague, and sometimes not gynaecological. They can even be similar to IBS but they do exist and 90 percent of people get them for up to a year before they're diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Symptoms include stomach pain, increased need to urinate, back pain change in bowel habits, unexplained bleeding and painful sex. If ovarian cancer is found soon enough, surgery may be all that's needed. If cancer cells remain, chemotherapy will also be given.
