Overview
We already know by now that the PSA test is used to screen for prostate cancer. It is to see whether there are any signs of cancer in your body before symptoms. Screening tests generally don't diagnose cancer. But if they do, you'll need other tests to find out if you have cancer and how serious it may be. Prostate cancer generally grows slowly. You can live years with prostate cancer and never know about it.
A PSA test is going to show the levels of prostate-specific antigen in your blood. If it's in the range of 0 to 2.0 ng/ml of blood, you're safe. It will be fine even if it goes up to 4.0 ng/ml of blood. In case it is in the range of 4-10 ng/ml of blood, it's said to be borderline. Anything above 10 ng/ml of blood will be termed as dangerous. PharmEasy Labs will provide you with the results based on these parameters.
Test Necessity
It's your choice whether to go for a PSA test regarding cancer or not. You have to talk to your friends or family members and consider the risk of developing serious cancer if tests are not done at the right time. The risk of having a prostate cancer will be high owing to any of the following factors:
- Age: In case you're above 50, chances are high
- Family Health History: The health history of your family also plays a vital role
- Race: African Americans are more prone to prostate cancer. They also have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer at a younger age and having a more serious disease.
In case you're suffering from symptoms like frequent urination, blood in urine or semen, and pelvic or back pain, you will have to consider going for a PSA test.
Test Preparation
No fasting is required to go for this test. But you might be asked to avoid having sex or masturbating for 24 hours before your PSA test since it increases your PSA levels.
During the PSA Test
The experienced phlebotomist will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm, using a small and sterile needle. The vein is located using a vein finder. The small amount of blood drawn will be transferred in a collection tube for the test. Everything during the procedure is done cleanly and hygienically.
