Known as "the silent killer". ovarian cancer often goes undetected until it reaches an advanced stage, making it all the more important to recognise its symptoms.





Common Symptoms include:

  • Bloating

  • Pelvic or abdominal pain

  • Feeling full quickly or difficulty eating

  • Urinating more urgently or frequently than usual

Other Symptoms we see:

  • Back pain

  • Changes in bowel habits

  • Fatigue

  • Pain during sex


These symptoms can be vague and easily mistaken for other conditions, but it's important to see your women's health GP if you experience them frequently.


In Australia, one woman loses her life to ovarian cancer every 8 hours, underscoring the seriousness of the disease.

It's worth noting that although ovarian cancer is more likely to affect women over 50 and those with a family history of the disease, it can occur in women of any age.


If you have concerns or suspect that you may have ovarian cancer, you can visit our Ovarian Cancer page to learn more, download a symptom diary, and schedule an appointment with your GP in 4 weeks.


Our Clinic 66 and Clinic 66 Online doctors are qualified to assist with any questions or concerns you may have. No referral required, and Medicare rebates do apply.
