Ovarian cancer- if you were diagnosed, what were your symptoms?

I'm concerned about some changes in my bowels and bladder over the past 7 months, and I am curious what symptoms people who HAVE been diagnosed with ovarian cancer had that made them get it checked out.

Generally ovarian cancer is asymptomatic until it is in the very late stages of the disease, at which point the most common symptoms are abnormal vaginal bleeding, sometimes abdominal pain or an abdominal mass, and only very occasionally problems with other body systems.

Ovarian cancer is rare, and even more rare in young women. I would advise that if you are worried about your bladder/bowel symptoms, you make an appointment with your doctor for some basic tests. But don't start convincing yourself you have ovarian cancer - it's VERY unlikely!
