It is hard for anyone to tell what this might be, it is best to visit your GP and get it looked at.

Go onto the Ovacome's website, ovacome.org.uk If you're wondering if its ovarian cancer, follow the tab for BEAT ovarian cancer with Ovacome. There is a symptom tracker there, where you can record symptoms and get them checked out. I don't know if there is usually a pain or burning sensation though, so hopefully, it's something else. You should get it checked out though

Hi If you have found a lump, even if it seems to disappear at times you

really should see a doctor. I had a similar lump and a burning sensation

but also needed to wee a lot. It was an Ovarian Cyst so please do get

checked out. Try not to worry and make your appointment.

Best wishes

Hi there

I had a big lump that I ignored , then because it did not get any worse I decided that it could not possible be anything horrible an that it was just middle age spread ...strange as I was a size 8_ turned out it was a big borderline tumour ....who knows what would have happened if it was left there.

You are not making a fuss , you need to get this checked out ....honestly .

I'm always at the doctor's with some niggle or moan, I'd get it checked out, worrying can make things worse, and yet it's more likely to be nothing.

Hi i had a big lump in my tummy and it turned out to be a benign fibroid but some of the main symptoms of something more serious is a bloated tummy which gets worse as time goes on, an increasing need to pee, reduced appetite and not being able to eat a ful meal and possibly bleeding between periods and suddenly heavier periods x

Get yourself to the doctors. DO NOT leave this because you feel silly. Your doctor is there for peace of mind as well as treatment. Please please make yourself an appointment straight away.

Love suzanne. xxx
