Acceptable levels are between 0- 35 U/mL,
Serum CA125 level in 39 (67.2%) out of 58 cases ranged from 36.7 U/mL to 1485.6 U/mL (mean 498.3 U/mL), being higher than normal (< 35 U/mL). Serum CA125 level of metastatic bladder cancer patients was 324.5 U/mL, significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.001). Serum CA125 level of 10 patients after transurethral resection operation was significantly lower than that before operation (P < 0.05). Serum CA125 level of 16 patients who refused further treatment significantly increased from 450.4 U/mL, to 505.8 U/mL (P = 0.041) 3 months after discharge from the hospital. Serum CA125 level of 17 patients significantly decreased from 475.8 U/L to 237.9 U/mL (P < 0.001) after bilateral iliac-arterial embolism treatment.
The normal range for CA 125 test results can vary slightly among laboratories, but generally falls between 0 and 35 U/mL. Elevated levels of CA 125 may indicate conditions such as ovarian cancer, but further testing is needed for a definitive diagnosis.
YES
No, CA-125 is not a fasting test. It is a blood test that measures the level of the protein CA-125 in the blood and is often used to monitor certain types of cancers, particularly ovarian cancer, and other conditions. No special preparation, such as fasting, is typically required before taking this test.
It all depends the normal ranges of the lab where you had the test done. At the hospital where I work at the normal range is anything below 38.6 U/mL. Make sure to check the normal ranges of the lab where you had the test done as it varies widely from lab to lab.

An elevated serum CA 125 test is nonspecific. It is only of clinical use in comparing one level to a previous level in certain conditions. It can't be used for screening or diagnosis. If you had a CA 125 level drawn, talk with your health care provider to understand the reason that this test was ordered.
To get results from a CA-125 blood test, it may take several weeks. This depends on the doctor, what lab they use and what the results are or what the symptoms are and the urgency.
The normal range for CA 19-9 levels can vary depending on the laboratory and the specific assay used, but generally, levels below 37 U/mL are considered normal. However, CA 19-9 levels can be elevated in various conditions including pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, and other gastrointestinal cancers. Consulting with a healthcare provider for interpretation of CA 19-9 test results is recommended.
Blood levels of CA 125 are used primarily to monitor the treatment of ovarian cancer. A falling CA 125 level usually indicates that cancer is responding to the treatment.

Fasting is not required before a CA-125 test, as it measures a protein in the blood, not affected by food intake. However, your healthcare provider may provide specific instructions based on your individual circumstances. It's important to follow any guidelines given to ensure accurate results.
