Prostate-Specific Antigen Profile

General Info:

Description:

The Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) profile test estimates PSA levels in the blood, which can be increased in conditions like prostate cancer, prostatitis, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). High levels may indicate prostate issues, but further evaluation is needed for a definitive diagnosis. It’s a valuable tool in prostate health assessment, mainly when used alongside other diagnostic tests and medical history.
