Talc in ovarian ca: One explanation for a possible association between talc and ovarian cancer is that decades ago talcum powder was sometimes contaminated with asbestos, a known carcinogen.

Question 4

can ovarian cancer cause my urine to be bloody?

Question 5

how and/or why does ovarian cancer cause feeling full / early satiety?

Accepted Answer

Spread inside the be: Ovarian cancer tends to spread all over the intestines , leading to their normal movement and normal functions. This is reflected in any form of digestive symptoms. There may also be fluid collection around the intestines which also interferes with their normal motility and digestive functions.

Question 6

can more childbirths cause a woman to have a higher chance of ovarian cancer?

No: Childbirth does not cause cancer. Actually women who have had full-term pregnancies are statistically at a lower risk for ovarian cancer than women with no kids.

Question 7

does abortions cause ovarian cancer i had six abortions in between six live and healthy children ?

Accepted Answer

That's a lot: Six is a lot of abortions, but sometimes we have to abort and destroy a baby fetus in order to prevent giving birth to a baby with genetic mutations. One's body does not get a higher chance of ovarian or breast cancer from abortions. A woman has a lower chance of these cancers if she spends more of her life being pregnant and breastfeeding afterwards... so having six kids can be a good thing.

Question 8

what's products should i stay away from that has talcon powder in it bc it's cause  ovarian cancer?

Accepted Answer

I don't believe it: You're 20 and too young to have really grasped the extent   of deception in this world. Most physicians think that the "scientific studies" showing a link between cancer and talcum powder are the result of recall bias -- ask a question the right way, and you'll get results that aren't true. If you believe all the scare stuff online and from lawyers, you'll end up unable to do anything.

Question 9

would ovarian cancer cause the feeling of being full all of the time? or more likely just early satiety?

Accepted Answer

No set pattern: Ovarian cancer symptoms are often vague and too varied to clearly sort them out. Any persistent abdominal symptoms, from fullness to early satiety to indigestion/pain can be a signal. The important thing to recognize  is their persistence and slow worsening over a period of time. If these symptoms do not go away in 2-3 weeks, seek medical evaluation; medical check up is the only way to be sure abo

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Not usually: The ovaries are closer to you groin and not likely to refer pain to the tail bone. There are exceptions such as metastatic disease that directly effects the tail bone or causes irritation to the nerves that lead to the tailbone.
