Symptoms of Ovarian Cancer

*Pelvic or abdominal pain or discomfort
*Vague but persistent gastrointestinal upsets such as gas, nausea, and indigestion
*Frequency and/or urgency in urination in the absence of an infection
*Unexplained weight gain or weight loss
*Pelvic and/or abdominal swelling, bloating, and/or feeling of fullness
