Are you over 50, over 45 and of black ethnicity, or do you have strong family history of prostate cancer? Perhaps you’d like to track your PSA level over time to check for changes. Our PSA Blood Test can detect if you have a raised PSA level, which can help detect prostate cancer and let you take prompt action. PSA or prostate specific antigen is a protein made by healthy cells in the prostate — a small gland that sits below the bladder in males. As you get older, your prostate gets bigger, and it’s normal to see your PSA level gradually increase over time. However, prostate cancer can also cause PSA levels to increase, so measuring PSA can be a useful screening tool. A PSA Blood Test can help pick up prostate cancer before symptoms develop and may detect a fast-growing cancer at an early stage when treatment is more likely to be effective. Regular testing can be useful if you’re at increased risk, such as if you have a family history of the condition. And if you’ve already been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you can monitor your level with regular PSA tests. Prepare for your PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) Blood Test by following these instructions. Avoid heavy exercise for 48 hours beforehand. Please avoid ejaculating for 48 hours prior to this test. Do not take biotin supplements for two days before this test, discuss this with your doctor if it is prescribed.
