Please tell me, are you more likely to feel an ovarian tumor while standing up or laying down?

You caan not feel th: Ovarian cancers are not palpable untill they are far advanced and start producing ascites(fluid build up) in the belly which will produce swelling of the abdomen. This will show up more on standing up than in lying down position.
