Cancer Antigen 125 (CA 125)
$10.50
Symptoms such as abdominal discomfort or pain, bloating, changes in bowel habits, and unusual vaginal bleeding may lead to the CA-125 serum test’s administration. This medical test primarily monitors and evaluates specific conditions, notably ovarian cancer. Elevated CA-125 levels in the blood can indicate ovarian cancer, though they can also occur in conditions like endometriosis, uterine fibroids, and pelvic inflammatory disease. The CA-125 test assists healthcare providers in assessing the likelihood of ovarian cancer and guides further diagnostic investigations and treatment decisions.
