Prostate Test (PSA)
The PSA test is a blood test used to screen for prostate cancer. The test measures the amount of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in your blood. PSA is a protein produced by both cancerous and noncancerous tissue in the prostate, a small gland that sits below a man’s bladder.
- Elevated PSA Levels may indicate:
- Prostate Cancer
- A noncancerous condition such as prostatitis
- An enlarged prostate
- A frequent need to urinate, especially at night
- Difficulty starting or stopping a stream of urine
- Leaking of urine when laughing or coughing
- Inability to urinate standing up
