Is this for me?
The Prostate Specific Antigen test is a screening tool that helps evaluate the total volume of PSA in the blood. PSA is found in semen and in the bloodstream.
For low-risk individuals, a low result makes prostate cancer unlikely. Meanwhile, a raised PSA level is non-specific, as it can occur due to many other causes, including non-cancerous enlargement or inflammation of the prostate.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, you might want to consider this test:
- Difficulty or painful urination
- Pain in the abdomen or pelvic region
- Frequent urgency to urinate
Biomarkers
PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen): A glycoprotein secreted by epithelial cells in the prostate gland. A walnut-sized gland that sits below the bladder in males, with the urethra running through it. The prostate’s purpose is to secrete fluid that provides nutrients and protection for sperm. PSA plays a role in improving male fertility.
