Thanks for posting the PSA. Although I have to admit I'm a bit befuddled by this. These symptoms have been long known to be markers of ovarian cancer. Is it just a question of publicizing them, and forcing doctors and patients to take them more seriously? That's certainly important, but it's nonetheless weird for this to be presented as "new" information.

I should also add, though, that by the time a woman has symptoms, no matter how vague, the ovarian cancer will have already progressed quite a bit. That's one of the many things that makes it so deadly.

Yearly CA-125 tests and transvaginal ultrasounds are a good idea for anyone at risk. As is getting your ovaries removed once you're done using them.
