CA 125
What's Included?

REQUIREMENTS

  • NO FASTING is required
  • LAB VISIT for blood draw
  • PERSONALIZE with MML START HERE Panel

  • CA-125 is a protein that is more prevalent in ovarian cancer cells than in other cells. This protein enters the blood stream and can be measured by a blood test.

    The test is most appropriately used to follow women who have already been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. In these cases, the CA-125 is a very good indicator of whether a patient is responding to treatment, however it IS NOT typically a good test to screen healthy women for ovarian cancer.

    NOTE: The vast majority of healthy women with an elevated CA-125 do not have ovarian cancer (or any other cancer for that matter). The "false positive" rate for this group of women is high.

    In fact, only about 3 out of 100 healthy women with elevated CA-125 actually have ovarian cancer. Any woman with an abnormal CA-125 test will need further tests to confirm the result. Therefore, the CA-125 should not be considered an effective general screening test for ovarian cancer.

    About Your Test Results

    Your first set of results (along with any health information you choose to share) will be assembled into a single private record on the BioHub platform as a reference point going forward. This information BELONGS TO YOU and NO OUTSIDE PARTY can access it without your invitation and consent. It is not available to your employer, insurance company, or any government agency and NEVER becomes part of your permanent medical record UNLESS YOU PROVIDE IT.

    When you have more than one value for a test, results are graphed together so you can easily track changes in your health over time. So the more tests the baseline includes, the more valuable it becomes in the future. Your results are reviewed by our medical team for any values needing immediate attention (critical) or requiring a follow up with your doctor (caution) before they are released to you. You will be notified by email or text when you can log back into your BioHub health record and review your results.

    Once results are complete, you have the option to purchase time in group discussions (webinars) and one-on-one reviews (expert reviews) from a growing list of experts to: ask questions, identify risk factors and help create a plan to move forward. This unique way to privately share information is revolutionizing the way we learn about our health.

    Looking at the exact same data from different perspectives (medical doctors, alternative medicine, nutrition, etc) allows everyone you invite to learn from each other. Expert add notes, recommend tests and follow up conversation (if needed), directly into one single record, it's the science of YOU. Each conversations is recorded and placed as an MP3 file in your private record to get the most out of the valuable information they provide.

    You will also receive an invitation to become part of a private Facebook group (free of charge) to join an exclusive discussion with other record holders. (Access to this group is only available to those who have created their own BioHub health record.) The sooner you complete your tests, the sooner you'll be learning from the group that includes some of the best experts in the world. You will also have the opportunity to nominate your favorite providers to be part of this growing group of experts.

    An Important Note About Your Experience
