Cells in your prostate make a protein called prostate-specific antigen (PSA). A PSA blood test measures the amount of PSA you have circulating in your blood. The amount of PSA your cells make tends to go up as you get older, but it can also be high in people with: ...
Blood levels of free-PSA, but not complexed-PSA, correlate to levels of PSA in seminal fluid contributed by the prostate gland in healthy young menLittle is known about the regulation of sperm motility, which is an important predictor of male fertility. However, both testicular and post-...
Fasting is not required for this test. Take all medications as prescribed. Note Ejaculation within 48 hours preceding the blood draw may elevate the PSA in some men. The laboratory services are for informational purposes only. It is not the intention of National Diagnostics, Inc and L...

Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a blood-based biomarker used for the detection and surveillance of prostate cancer (PCa)1. PCa can cause disruption of the prostate’s cellular architecture, which in turn can result in PSA leaking into circulating blood. However, PSA levels can also be affec...
A key element of prostate cancer follow up is regular monitoring ofProstate Specific Antigen(PSA) levels. ThePSA testis a simple blood test which can be used to identify potential prostatecancer recurrence(Watson et al., 2011). It is important to monitor PSA levels after treatment because a ri...
