Ovarian cancer is a disease that all women need to know about. It is known as the silent disease. Why? Because many women do not experience any signs, thus delaying the diagnosis. This disease often doesn’t produce symptoms until it is too late. So, to move the phrase ‘late’ out from our health dictionary, that would be much better if we take an awareness to the warning signs that may indicate ovarian cancer, so that we can detect it earlier.

There are a few symptoms women may notice and pass off as PMS, aging, or as generally not feeling well :

• frequent urgency to urinate
• feeling full quickly after eating or difficulty eating
• bloating, pelvic and/or abdominal pain

Because these symptoms “whisper”, many women do not seek immediate treatment until the disease has unknowingly progressed. So, if you experience these warning signs daily, for three weeks or longer, see your doctor. It’s a must.
