BY Ina Barton 2018-03-23Although CA125 is a tumor marker, it cannot be said that its increase necessarily means that it has a tumor. Many non-tumor diseases, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic tuberculosis, endometriosis, adenomyosis, chocolate cysts, chronic hepatitis and other diseases, will also increase CA125, some even higher than the early serum of some tumors Academic level. In general, the increase in CA125 is positively correlated with the severity of these diseases.6
