Summary about Ovarian Cancer in English

Ovarian cancer starts when abnormal cells in the ovaries, the fallopian tubes or the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) grow out of control and form a tumor. The ovaries are two small organs on either side of the uterus. They produce eggs and the hormones estrogen and progesterone.

What makes ovarian cancer serious is that it rarely causes clear signs in the early stages. Its first symptoms, such as bloating or mild stomach pain, are easy to confuse with digestive problems. As a result, many women are diagnosed only after the cancer has spread. When it is found early, while it is still limited to the ovary, treatment works much better.

Ovarian cancer mostly affects women after menopause, but it can occur at any age.

Ovarian Cancer Symptoms

Early signs of ovarian cancer are often vague. A woman’s first symptoms are usually:

  • Bloating or swelling of the stomach that does not go away

  • Pain in the lower abdomen, pelvis or back

  • Feeling full quickly or losing appetite

  • Needing to pass urine often or urgently

As the disease progresses, other signs may include:

  • Changes in bowel habits, such as constipation

  • Unexplained weight loss or weight gain around the waist

  • Constant tiredness

  • Pain during intercourse

  • Vaginal bleeding after menopause or irregular periods

These symptoms are common and are usually caused by less serious conditions. See a gynecologist if any of them is new for you, does not go away, and happens on most days for more than two to three weeks.

Ovarian Cancer Causes

The exact cause of ovarian cancer is not known. It begins when changes (mutations) in the DNA of cells make them grow and divide abnormally. Inherited gene changes, mainly in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, and conditions such as Lynch syndrome raise the risk. Many high-grade ovarian cancers are now thought to start in the fallopian tubes and then spread to the ovary.

Ovarian Cancer Risk Factors

Factors that increase the risk of ovarian cancer include:

  • Age, as most cases occur after menopause

  • Family history of ovarian, breast or bowel cancer

  • Inherited gene changes (BRCA1, BRCA2, Lynch syndrome)

  • Endometriosis

  • Never having been pregnant

  • Starting periods early or reaching menopause late

  • Long-term hormone replacement therapy after menopause

  • Obesity

  • Smoking

Ovarian Cancer Preventive Measures

  • Using birth control pills, as advised by a doctor

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding

  • Keeping a healthy weight and not smoking

  • Genetic counseling and testing for women with a strong family history; some high-risk women choose risk-reducing surgery after discussing it with their doctor

Ovarian Cancer Types

Ovarian cancer is classified by the type of cell where it starts:

Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The most common type, making up about 90% of cases. It starts in the cells covering the outer surface of the ovary or in the fallopian tube. High-grade serous carcinoma is its most common subtype.

Germ Cell Tumors

These start in the cells that produce eggs. They are rare and mostly affect teenagers and young women. They usually respond well to treatment.

Stromal Tumors

These start in the tissue that holds the ovary together and produces hormones. They are often found early and may cause abnormal bleeding because of extra hormones.

Ovarian Cancer Stages

Doctors use the FIGO staging system to describe how far ovarian cancer has spread:

  • Stage I: Cancer is limited to one or both ovaries or fallopian tubes.

  • Stage II: Cancer has spread to other organs in the pelvis, such as the uterus or bladder.

  • Stage III: Cancer has spread to the lining of the abdomen outside the pelvis and/or to nearby lymph nodes.

  • Stage IV: Cancer has spread to distant organs, such as the liver, lungs, or fluid around the lungs.

Ovarian Cyst vs Ovarian Cancer

Most ovarian cysts are harmless fluid-filled sacs that go away on their own and are not cancer. A doctor may look more closely if a cyst looks complex on ultrasound, keeps growing, is large, or appears after menopause. In such cases, a CA-125 blood test, further scans or referral to a specialist may be advised.

Ovarian Cancer Diagnosis

The tests used to diagnose ovarian cancer include:

  • Pelvic examination to check the ovaries and uterus for any lump or abnormality

  • Transvaginal ultrasound to see the size and structure of the ovaries

  • CA-125 blood test, a protein that is often raised in ovarian cancer (it can also rise in non-cancerous conditions)

  • CT scan or MRI to check whether the cancer has spread

  • Biopsy or surgery to remove a tissue sample and confirm the diagnosis

  • Genetic testing to look for BRCA or other gene changes that affect treatment and family risk

Can You Check for Ovarian Cancer at Home?

There is no reliable way to check for ovarian cancer at home, and a self-examination cannot detect it. What you can do at home is pay attention to your body. Keep a note of symptoms such as bloating, pelvic pain, feeling full quickly or frequent urination. If they happen on most days for more than two to three weeks, see a gynecologist. Women with a family history should ask their doctor about regular check-ups.

Ovarian Cancer Treatment

Treatment depends on the stage, the type of cancer, the woman’s age and her overall health. Common options are:

  • Surgery: Removal of the ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus, and as much of the tumor as possible. In young women with very early-stage disease, fertility-sparing surgery that keeps one ovary and the uterus may be possible.

  • Chemotherapy: Given after surgery, and sometimes before it to shrink the tumor.

  • Targeted therapy: Medicines such as PARP inhibitors, used especially in women with BRCA mutations, to keep the cancer from coming back.

  • Hormone therapy: Used for some slow-growing or stromal tumors.

  • Follow-up care: Regular check-ups and CA-125 tests to watch for recurrence.

Ovarian Cancer Complications

Ovarian cancer and its treatment can lead to:

  • Fluid build-up in the abdomen (ascites)

  • Bowel or urinary blockage

  • Fluid around the lungs, causing breathlessness

  • Spread of cancer to the liver, lungs or other organs

  • Early menopause after removal of the ovaries

  • Infertility

  • Side effects of chemotherapy, such as fatigue, hair loss and nausea

  • Cancer coming back after treatment
