A member asked:

Is it possible for you to feel lump from ovarian cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not early enough: Only very advanced ovarian cancer will produce swelling in the abdomen which a patient can see and feel. Early ovarian cancers are too deeply located to be palpable by patient's hands.
