A member asked:
My rt ovary (seemingly) bloats up and down (as if like gas) when i eat high fiber foods but only my rt. is this normal? ovarian cancer maybe? scared.

Very unlikely: To be ovarian cancer by symptoms and your age. Most likely your cecum (the first part of the colon in the right lower abdomen in most patients) occasionally gets distended with gas or feces. Ovarian problems would not vary with diet.
