Some patients with ovarian cysts will have slightly elevated CA125 in their bodies, but some patients with ovarian cysts will not have high CA125, such as physiologic ovarian cysts.
CA125 is a glycoprotein complex and one of the tumor markers, and some patients with ovarian cysts will have elevated CA125. In addition, if patients with ovarian cysts also have diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease and endometritis, it may also lead to elevated CA125, but the elevated level is often mild.
In addition, physiologic ovarian cysts, such as luteal cysts of the ovary, usually do not increase CA125.
If the patient has ovarian cysts and CA125 is significantly elevated, it is recommended to consult a doctor in a timely manner, complete the relevant examinations under the guidance of the doctor to clarify the cause of the disease and take appropriate treatment measures.
