Bloating
When the ovarian cancer spreads to abdominal lining, it may lead to abdominal bloating. It is a condition when there is a visible abdominal distention and your tummy seems to be growing.This is because, when cancer spreads, a liquid, known as ascites fluid is produced and fills the abdominal cavity. However if you are experiencing bloating, it may not be ovarian cancer always. You must get a checkup done by your gynecologist.
Pelvic And Abdominal Pain
Ovarian cancer, in stage III may cause a constant pain in lower abdomen or a kind of pressure in the pelvic area. This pain does not have anything to do with digestion, and its reasons remain unknown, if the problem has not been diagnosed.
In the late stages of ovarian cancer, pelvic or abdominal pain is the most common symptom. A pelvic pain should be reported to a doctor and is not something to be ignored, if it lasts for more than a week.
