This test is ideal if you're concerned about cervical cancer risk or experiencing symptoms like unusual vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, or unexplained weight loss. It measures cancer markers in your blood that may indicate the presence of cervical cancer or help monitor treatment progress if you've been diagnosed. Many women use this test for peace of mind, early detection, or as part of their regular cancer screening routine.
There are no special preparation requirements for this test. Fasting is not required, so you can eat and drink normally before your blood draw. Simply schedule your appointment at a convenient time and present your test order at the lab.
This panel measures CA 19-9 and CEA, two important tumor markers that can be elevated in various cancers including cervical cancer. CA 19-9 helps detect certain types of cancer cells and monitor treatment response, while CEA is a protein that can indicate cancer presence or recurrence. Together, these markers provide valuable information about potential cancer activity in your body and help your healthcare team make informed decisions about screening, diagnosis, or treatment monitoring.
What this means
Your CEA level is slightly above the optimal range. While this is not necessarily cause for alarm, it may warrant follow-up testing or monitoring, as elevated CEA can be associated with smoking, inflammation, or other conditions in addition to cancer. Your healthcare provider can help interpret this result in context with your symptoms and medical history.
Recommended actions
Discuss this result with your healthcare provider for further evaluation
Consider additional imaging or diagnostic tests if recommended
If you smoke, work on a cessation plan as smoking can elevate CEA levels
Retest in 3-6 months to monitor trends and changes
