However, when it is done on a woman with endo it can come out high. Normal range for this test is ( according to my DR) 35 and under. So anything higher warrents looking into. However, most of the women I talk to all say they had a reading of 200-300 with endo and cancer was never found. I hope this helps. I am not sure about Thibroids that is a term that I never had to deal with maybe someone else can help with this? Good luck Next message: Kari: "What should my mom expect..."
