The Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Total Test is a diagnostic blood test used to measure the level of PSA in the blood. PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland, and its elevated levels may indicate the presence of prostate issues, including prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostatitis. This test is crucial for early detection, monitoring treatment progress, and evaluating the health of the prostate.

Frequently asked questions

The PSA test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen in the blood, which can help detect prostate cancer and other prostate-related conditions.

A normal PSA range is typically below 4 ng/mL, but levels can vary depending on age and individual health factors. Your healthcare provider will interpret the results based on your medical history.

The PSA test helps detect early signs of prostate cancer and monitor prostate health, making it crucial for men over 50 or those with a family history of prostate cancer.

The PSA test involves a simple blood draw from your arm. The blood sample is then analyzed to measure the levels of PSA in your blood.

While the PSA test is a useful screening tool, it is not foolproof. Elevated PSA levels can also be caused by conditions like BPH or prostatitis. Additional tests may be required to confirm the diagnosis.

Factors such as age, prostate size, recent physical activity, ejaculation, and certain medications can affect PSA levels. Itโ€™s important to inform your doctor about these factors before taking the test.

While the PSA test can indicate abnormal prostate function, it cannot definitively diagnose prostate cancer. Further testing, such as a biopsy, is required for a definitive diagnosis.

The frequency of PSA testing depends on your age, family history, and risk factors. Generally, men over 50 should get screened regularly, but your doctor will determine the appropriate schedule for you.
