Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA For Men) in Bikaner - Price & Details

The PSA test is a key tool in detecting prostate cancer in its early stages. While a higher PSA level can indicate prostate cancer, it's not conclusive and must be evaluated alongside other factors. The test also helps in monitoring prostate health, especially in men over 50 or those with a family history of prostate issues. Elevated PSA levels can cause concern, but it's important to understand that high PSA doesn't always mean cancer. Other conditions like prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlargement of the prostate) can also raise PSA levels. Age and race also influence PSA levels, with older men and African-American men typically having higher levels.

Doctors often prescribe the PSA test for men, particularly those over 50 or with a family history of prostate cancer. It's also recommended for monitoring the effectiveness of prostate cancer treatment and checking for cancer recurrence. In some cases, it's used to evaluate symptoms suggestive of prostate problems, such as difficulty urinating.

No special preparation is needed for the PSA test. It's a simple blood test, and you can eat and drink normally before the test. However, certain activities, like vigorous exercise or ejaculation, can temporarily increase PSA levels, so you may be advised to avoid these activities before testing.
