What's the average/typical size of ovarian tumors that are cancerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Size is not criteria: Benign cysts could be huge , malignant ovarian tumors could be very small , so size is not the criteria . Go for regular gyn examinations , sonograms if indicated and follow your doctors advise .
