CA-125 report

I got my tumor marker test report with an elevated level of CA 125, I.e 39 .0 where the reference level is to be less than 35. Does it indicates ovarian cancer??

Have you done a Sonography of the abdomen. If not, then get it done. CA 125 though it increases in ovarian cancers, it is a non specific marker which can increase in various other situations too. Kindly do usg abdomen and also cardiac evaluation as a small rise in ca 125 can also happen in cardiac problems
