I had ovarian cancer in 2008 and had a total hysterectomy/oophorectomy at that time. The yearly screening consists of the CA 125 and a CT scan. I have my doubts about the CT scan as they always seem to see something but say it's scar tissue from previous surgeries, however, that's what they said was seen on the CT before my endometrioid was found. Subsequent scans supposedly show the same thing and after a few years of that, I have my doubts when thinking back to the scan before the surgery in 2017.
