Ovarian cancer currently has no approved screening tests for early detection. Pap tests, often used to detect cervical cancer, do not detect ovarian cancer. The incidence of ovarian cancer actually increases with age, and early stages of ovarian cancer often do not present obvious warning signs, making it difficult to detect early.
