CA125 – Ovarian Cancer Marker
Test
CA125 - Ovarian Cancer Marker
A CA 125 test may be used to track the progression of some malignancies before and after therapy. In rare cases, a CA 125 test may be used to screen for early signs of ovarian cancer in women with a high risk of the disease.
If you have ovarian, endometrial, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer, your doctor may regularly advise you to get a CA 125 test to evaluate your progress and treatment.
If you have a significant family history of ovarian cancer or the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, your doctor may offer a CA 125 test as one method of screening for ovarian cancer. You can eat and drink before the test if your blood tests for CA 125.
