Reasons of elevated tumor markers
A tumor marker is anything present in or produced by cancer cells or other cells of the body in response to cancer or certain benign (noncancerous) conditions. Most tumor markers are proteins that can be found in your blood or urine.
As tumor markers can be produced by normal cells or cancer cells, sometimes tumor markers rise in non-cancerous conditions. For this reason, only a few of these tumour markers are used by doctors in predicting cancer's behaviour.

FAQ
Why tumor markers are important?
Cancer screening: is the detection of cancer before symptoms appear, conducive to early detection of early-stage cancer. The original purpose of the tumor markers was to help doctors detect cancer early; some of the markers can be used in screening and detection applications.
Determining the efficacy of cancer treatment: tumor markers is important in monitoring treatment progress. If the tumor marker decreases as treatment progresses, the treatment is effective; if vice versa, the treatment may not be effective and the physician should consider changing the alternative treatment.
Why is it crucial to have regular medical check-ups? How often should I have a health screening?
It is recommended that adults aged 18 or above should undergo a regular health screening every year to detect potential health disorders or hidden illnesses. High risk groups and elderly should have their physical examinations every six months as it can be difficult to diagnose diseases in the early stages. Behavioural risk factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, lack of sleep and exercise are also attributed to poor health, a comprehensive health screening can be conducted to acquire a full understanding of your physical condition. Individuals who have family history with serious illnesses like cancer or heart disease, should undergo appropriate health checks according to their needs.
