A member asked:
Is it possible to have ovarian cancer and have a normal ca 125 blood test?
15 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes.: Ca125 can vary from person to person and can change under various circumstances not related to cancer. It is more useful as a way to track disease progression or treatment success.
