Available Screenings

​

  • Pelvic Exam: During an annual physical (well-woman exam), your doctor will perform a pelvic exam to feel for cancer tumors and other abnormalities. 

  • Transvaginal Ultrasound: If your pelvic exam is abnormal, your doctor may request that you have a transvaginal ultrasound to scan for tumors and other abnormalities.

  • CA-125 Blood Test: High levels of the CA-125 protein can sometimes indicate ovarian diseases, including cancer.
