Diagnostic use of CA 125 values measured on the 2nd and 14th days of the menstrual cycle in endometriosis

Background/Aim: This study examines the difference of serum CRP and CA 125 levels between the menstrual and non-menstrual phases of the menstrual cycle (days 2 and 14) and aims to investigate the diagnostic value of these markers for the early diagnosis of endometriosis. Methods: There were 36 patients in the study group and 30 patients in the control group (n = 66) in this prospective case-control study. The patients in the study group, who were prediagnosed with endometriosis, were tested for serum CA 125 and CRP on the 2nd and 14th days of menstrual cycle preoperatively (during menstruation and non-menstrual phase) and underwent surgery. The women in the control group were patients who visited the outpatient clinic for a regular checkup without any gynecological complaints. Results: The CA 125 levels were significantly higher on the 2nd day of the menstrual cycle than the 14th day in the study group [108.15 (90.33) U/mL and 58.60 (39.53) U/mL, respectively, P
