2. Weight changes
Sudden, unexplained weight loss may be a warning sign of ovarian cancer. As the disease progresses, cancer cells can affect metabolism, leading to rapid weight loss despite eating normally. Additionally, ovarian tumors can cause loss of appetite or a feeling of fullness after eating small amounts of food.
3. Changes in the menstrual cycle
A scientific report revealed that 13% of patients cite bleeding as a symptom of ovarian cancer. Bleeding or vaginal discharge between periods or after menopause is a cause for concern. Additionally, any unusual changes in vaginal discharge that differ from normal can be a warning sign.
