I am a 19 yrs old female. I was watching the news the other evening and one of the topics was ovarian cancer, and how it is a silent killer. I was wondering if it is possible for someone so young, like myself to get ovarian cancer ?? I was reading the symptoms, like increased urination, constant fatigue, and bowel movement changes ?? I am experiencing all of these. I don't I think the reason why I am always tired is because I work and go to school. Now, well none of this runs in my family, I am still worried. I think mostly the reason is because, a few months back I had a cone biopsy done to remove pre-cancerous cells from my cervix. I'm not sure what is happening. But would my gyno even think to check me for ovarian cancer ?? I mean I go for a pap smear every 3 months, and I know it does not detect ovarian cancer, but he does check them...I am confused...I have read that ovarian cancer really only affects people going through menopause ??!?!? If anyone could help, it would be great !!! Are there tests I could get done. I mean I live in canada, so there is no cost !! Any options would be great.
