Can it be a reason for ovarian cancer

Resolved question:

 I have been having severe abdominal pain for a few weeks now. Also I have lost appetite. I feel like having no energy also. I also have a medical history of cancer in family. I was admitted to hospital tonight with severe pain. Then I was has a CT scan and they said I am having a kidney stone.  Am I having an ovarian cancer? What are the causes of ovarian cancer? Should I worry about a possibility of having ovarian cancer?

As you doubts, cancer history in family can increase risk of ovarian cancer in family members. Moreover, cases of ovarian cancer develop usually after menopause. But it is not likely for you to have an ovarian cancer since your CT scan records did not show any abnormalities. Have a second opinion of your record from your doctor to get everything clear. Severe pain can also be a result of kidney stone. This pain is also called renal colic.
Good luck and get well soon.
