The symptoms are not conclusive of ovarian tumor.
Ovarian tumors usually present with a dull aching pain and sharp pain and spasm are unlikely. Other findings like weight loss and abdominal fullness will be there.
You can simply go for an ultrasound scan to rule out any lump or tumor arising from ovaries.
Tumor markers like CA-125 is also elevated in suspected ovarian tumors.
