What is a PSA Test?

A PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) test measures the level of PSA — a protein produced by the prostate gland — in your blood.

Higher levels can be associated with prostate inflammation, enlargement, or cancer, but can also be caused by non-cancerous conditions.

A PSA screening result can identify an elevated level that may warrant professional follow-up; it cannot diagnose prostate cancer.

An at-home PSA Test gives you an initial view of your PSA level, privately and conveniently.

Why Test Your PSA Levels?

Prostate issues are common health concerns for men, and some can develop without obvious early symptoms.

Testing may help you:

  • Identify a result that may require professional follow-up
  • Discuss results with a healthcare provider
  • Monitor PSA levels based on professional guidance

A PSA screening result is not a diagnosis and should be interpreted with a healthcare provider.

    Understanding Test Performance 

  • When Should You Take a PSA Test?

    PSA screening decisions depend on age, family history, symptoms, individual risk factors, and personal preferences. Discuss the potential benefits and harms, the appropriate starting age, and testing frequency with a healthcare provider.

    Contact a healthcare provider if you notice urinary symptoms, blood in urine or semen, or persistent pelvic or back pain. These symptoms can have many causes and are not specific to prostate cancer.

  • What To Do If Your PSA Level Is High?

    An elevated PSA result does not automatically mean prostate cancer. Contact a healthcare provider or urologist for appropriate follow-up testing and advice.

    A healthcare provider can interpret the result in the context of your age, history, symptoms, and risk factors.
