What is ca hormone? Is there any relationship between ca hormone and the six hormone items?

In many disease test reports, there are indicators that patients cannot understand. This is normal because patients have limited knowledge. In some tumors and cancers, there is a hormone called CA. So what is CA? CA is actually a sex hormone, which is completely different from the hormones in the six hormone items. One is for detecting pregnancy, and the other is for observing tumors.

CA125 is a common hormone type in the human body and is also the most studied ovarian cancer marker. At the same time, it also has a certain positive rate for ovarian epithelial cancer, cervical cancer, uterine cancer, endometrial cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer.

CA125 is a glycoprotein that can be bound by the monoclonal antibody OC125 and was detected by Bast et al. in 1983 from epithelial ovarian cancer antigens. 95% of healthy adult women have CA125 levels ≤ 35U/ml. If the patient's serum CA125 level is twice the baseline level, physical examination, TVS (vaginal ultrasound) and CT examination should be performed immediately.

CA125 is not only a specific marker for ovarian cancer, but also has elevated levels in patients with fallopian tube adenocarcinoma, endometrial cancer, cervical cancer, pancreatic cancer, intestinal cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer.

n-Ca is free calcium, T-Ca (serum total calcium. Common reasons for increase include: hyperparathyroidism, malignant tumors (leukemia, multiple myeloma, etc.) and bone metastasis of malignant tumors. If you have other discomforts and your above indicators are elevated, you should see a doctor in time and let the doctor make a judgment. If it is only a little bit high, there is no problem.

In recent years, new tumor markers have been discovered and detection methods have been improved, which has continuously improved their sensitivity and accuracy. I believe that in the future, the emerging discipline of "tumor markers" will achieve greater development and provide more sufficient basis for early reflection of tumor changes in the body.
