Description

The Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) test is a blood test that helps detect and manage cases of prostate cancer and other prostate conditions. PSA is a type of protein produced by the prostate gland. A part of the male reproductive system, the prostate gland produced PSA is found in the male semen. A PSA test is done to measure the amount of PSA protein in the individual’s bloodstream. A minimal amount of PSA is always present in the blood, but elevated levels of the same are indicative of a prostate-related concern which includes enlarged or inflamed prostate and prostate cancer. Your healthcare provider will advise you to undergo the test if you exhibit any symptoms of prostate cancer or if there is a significant risk of prostatic hyperplasia. If your test results reveal elevated PSA levels in the blood, your doctor may suggest some further tests for a more informed diagnosis.
