$20.00
The Total PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) blood test measures the level of PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland, in your blood. It is primarily used as a screening tool for prostate cancer and monitoring prostate health.
Sample Type: The test requires a small blood sample, typically obtained by drawing blood from a vein in your arm using a needle.
Normal Range: The normal range for total PSA levels in the blood can vary depending on factors such as age, ethnicity, and the laboratory performing the test. Generally, a PSA level below 4 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) is considered normal for most men. However, higher PSA levels may warrant further investigation.
It’s important to note that an elevated PSA level does not necessarily indicate prostate cancer. Other factors, such as age, prostate size, and certain medical conditions, can also affect PSA levels. If your total PSA level is elevated, your healthcare provider may recommend additional tests, such as a digital rectal examination (DRE) or prostate biopsy, to further evaluate your prostate health.
