Let’s Talk About Ovarian Cancer

Do you know the symptoms?

• Persistent bloating or swollen tummy
• Reduced appetite or feeling full quickly
• Pain or tenderness in tummy or pelvis
• Needing to wee more urgently or often

Symptoms will be:

• Frequent – usually more than 12 times a month
• Persistent – they don’t go away
• New – not normal for you

Other possible symptoms:

• Diarrhoea/constipation
• Tired all the time
• Weight loss
• Back pain
• Bleeding after menopause

There are many other (non-cancer) causes for these symptoms but if you are concerned, its best to get them checked out.

Finding ovarian cancer earlier can mean its more treatable.
