  • Pregnancy
  • Menstruation
  • Liver diseases (such as cirrhosis)
  • Other Cancers (e.g., endometrial, fallopian tube, pancreatic, breast, lung, colon)

What to Expect

  • The test is a simple blood test, typically ordered by a GP or specialist to evaluate symptoms or monitor a known condition. If you are experiencing symptoms like persistent bloating, pelvic pain, or increased abdominal size, you should discuss this with your doctor.
