Persistent bloating is a key symptom of ovarian cancer, yet over half of UK women admit they’d change their diet before seeing their GP if they experienced it, a new survey has found.
Only one in three (34%) say they’d contact their GP if suffering with ongoing bloating, while 55% would try tweaking their diet – such as cutting out gluten or opting for probiotic yoghurts – according to the research by the charity Target Ovarian Cancer.
