Lately I have had several women ask me how I knew I had ovarian cancer, what were the symptoms? For me, I didn't know I had ovarian cancer. It was found only because I had a biopsy that indicated I had uterine cancer which led to a hysterectomy where my ovarian cancer was also found. Looking back over the list of symptoms, I can tell you that I had most of them but attributed them to other things that I didn't much pay attention to. In that light, I wanted to share the following link with you in hopes that it might help someone else get the medical attention they need in a timely fashion. Early detection is key for ovarian cancer...the absolute key. And, FYI, ovarian cancer can NOT be detected from a Pap test.

Love and Good Health to You All!
