A member asked:

I recently found out that she had cysts in her ovaries, and had a ca125 test.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No concern: Cysts of the ovary are common. If they are not complex but greater than 5cm, . Removal suggested under 5 cm can be watched. Ca 125 isa carbohydrate marker noted in tumors and inflammatory conditions. Since it is elevated in inflammatory pelvic disease it has no importance in benign disease. And can only be used for monitoring.
