Test Details

The PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test is a blood test that measures the level of PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland. This test is primarily used to screen for prostate cancer and monitor prostate health.

Blood Sample: A healthcare provider will collect a blood sample, typically from a vein in your arm, using a needle and a syringe or a specialized blood collection tube.

Laboratory Analysis: The blood sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis. The PSA level in the blood is measured.

Fasting or special preparation is not required for the PSA test. You can typically eat and drink as usual before the test.

You may feel a brief pinch or discomfort when the needle is inserted to draw the blood sample. Afterward, there might be some mild bruising or soreness at the site, but this is typically temporary.

Normal PSA levels vary by age but generally range from 0 to 4 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) of blood.

Elevated PSA: Higher than normal PSA levels may suggest prostate cancer, but other factors, including age and non-cancerous prostate conditions, can also cause elevated PSA.

Rapid PSA Rise: A significant increase in PSA levels over time may be concerning and could indicate prostate cancer.

The PSA test is a routine blood test and is generally safe. Risks are minimal and may include:

Mild bruising at the blood sample site.

Rarely, fainting or lightheadedness during or after the blood draw.
