Finger-Stick Sample
PSA screening may help you detect prostate cancer early. You should get tested if you’re worried about prostate problems, if you’re at increased risk of getting prostate cancer, or if you have symptoms such as problems urinating.
Collect your specimen in the morning and drop it in the mail, on the same day, using the pre-paid envelope we provide in your test kit.
The Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) test is a blood test used primarily 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 the bladder in males.
PSA tests can pick up some prostate cancers before they have any symptoms. This means that the patient can then make a decision about whether they should undergo treatment or watchful waiting for their cancer.
It can also mean that if the cancer is fast growing, it may be possible to start treatment early enough to stop the cancer spreading beyond the prostate and becoming advanced prostate cancer.
An elevated PSA level does not cause symptoms, but it may be a sign of prostate problems like cancer.
An elevated PSA level doesn’t cause other symptoms. But it may be a sign of certain conditions that affect your prostate. These conditions might cause other symptoms.
Symptoms may include:
Difficulty urinating (peeing)
Peeing more than usual, including while you’re sleeping
Slow pee stream
Blood in your urine (hematuria)
Difficulty holding your pee in (urinary incontinence)
