You can go to WebMd and type in ovarian cancer in the search box and see all of the symptoms, what tests are done to diagnose this and what treatments are available.

Ovarian cancer is usually associated with a tumor or germ cell on or near the ovary. As far as symptoms, it is not very concrete. You are unlikely to feel a lump as you would with Breast Cancer. Ovarian Cancer affects 1 in every 55 women. It is the second highest killer of women followed only to Heart disease. Though more women will get breast cancer, proportionally, more women will die of ovarian cancer because it is not as common. Definitely go see your gynecologist to be sure. They have made great strides, it is a curable disease if caught early enough.
