Patient's question:
This month, my menstrual flow is light, only using sanitary pads. I usually experience menstrual cramps, and my periods are irregular. The doctor prescribed CA125, considering the possibility of ovarian cancer? Last year, I had an ultrasound with a well-filled bladder: the uterus is anteriorly positioned, regular in shape, measuring 42mm × 36mm × 29mm (anteroposterior diameter × approximate transverse diameter × anteroposterior diameter), with uniform muscle layer echoes and no obvious mass echoes. The endometrium on the left side is about 4mm thick. The cervix is not thick. CDFI shows no obvious abnormal blood flow signals. There are no obvious abnormal echoes in the bilateral adnexal regions. The pelvis shows a free fluid area with a range of about 34mm × 10mm. The sex hormones are follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, which are elevated. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, the ultrasound room did not see any obvious abnormal masses, only pelvic effusion. The doctor recommended you do this blood test as a routine check, which does not necessarily mean you have ovarian cancer. It is recommended to wait for the results and see. Gynecological diseases are a common gynecological condition, during the treatment period, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of care. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet as the foundation.
