A member asked:
I have tender breasts/bloating from ovulation until my period starts. is this cycle related or ovarian cancer? bloating has not returned this month.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: This is very common in women and simply isn't a marker for ovarian cancer. Please accept my sympathy if you are having trouble dealing with an unfounded fear of ovarian cancer. Perhaps your physician can recommend ways to deal with this concern -- all of us have our minds play tricks on us. Be strong, brave, and discerning.
