Yeah, so we've got the specific symptoms, but we've also got these general symptoms as well.

So they feel like they could be coming from somewhere else.

But also they're easily dismissed, not just by the lady or the person with the ovaries, but also by doctors as well.

So it's really important to know what those symptoms are.

And the most common thing to look out for is gas or feeling bloated.

Now, when you hear that, you think, well, that's not my ovaries.

I'm bloated every so often with my cycle or whatever.

But actually, if you've got unexplained gas or a feeling of being bloated for three weeks or more and you are...

The official guidance is 40 or above, but I would say 35 or above.

Get that checked.

Get that checked.

That isn't the only symptom, of course.

You could, because of all the gas and bloatedness, you could feel full earlier than you would feel full when you're eating.
