    abnormal cell growth in ovaries, potentially benign or malignant

    An ovarian tumor, also known as an ovarian neoplasm, is an abnormal growth of cells that forms in the ovaries, which are the reproductive glands in women. These tumors can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous), and their presence can affect hormone levels, menstrual cycles, and overall reproductive health. Early detection and treatment are crucial for managing potential complications.
