The PSA test is undertaken as a means of timely detection of prostate cancer. If it remains undiagnosed, severe health complications may occur.

Your doctor may also recommend you to take the test in the event of below-mentioned symptoms:

• Painful ejaculation
• Burning sensation during urination
• Frequent urges to urinate
• Blood in urine or semen
• Pain in the lower back or the pelvis

If you notice any of these symptoms, consult a doctor immediately for a quick and timely diagnosis.

The PSA test does not require fasting on the part of the patient. However, one is advised to avoid ejaculation for a minimum of 24 to 48 hours before the test. This is done because the recent release of semen could elevate PSA levels in the bloodstream and affect the test results. Heavy exercise and alcohol consumption should also be avoided for a minimum of 24 hours before the test, as they may influence the PSA level in the blood.

During the PSA Test

After you book your PSA test through the PharmEasy app or website, a trained phlebotomist will be sent to the registered address on the date and time selected. They will draw your blood sample using sterilised equipment and use a vein finder to locate the right vein to draw blood from. The whole procedure from start to end is extremely organised and hygienic.
