I believe a scan is only way, and even then that can be vague. CA125 is a very non specific test, which just indicates that something is wrong in the abdominal area. In my case an extremely high ca125 saw we urgently referred to gynae oncology, but it was ‘just’ my endometriosis.

You would need a scan to find a cyst and/or fibroid. I have both and was seen on vaginal ultrasound scan.
