Dear Stacey,
I have a feeling that there is something going on with my ovaries. I have a sensation in that area of my body that does not feel right. I am concerned that it could be serious. I have not gone to the doctor. What do you get about it? Thanks so much.

It is great that you are listening to your body. When we pay attention, we can heal things before they get too serious. You have reason to be concerned: There is a tumor that just started to form in your ovary. You caught it on time, which is great!
