A member asked:
Is it possible to tell is you have cervical cancer or other reproductive organ cancer with a blood test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mostly no: There are no reliable blood markers for cervical cancer. The tumor marker ca125 is often an indicator of ovarian cancer, but it is not very sensitive and not very specific. It is used as a screening test in some circumstances, and to follow the effects of therapy when it has been documented to be high at the start. There are no blood markers that are good for endometrial cancer, either.
