Book a Test- Free PSA

Prostate health can be gauged by measuring the levels of a specific protein called Free Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) in the blood. This protein is unique because it isn't attached to other proteins, allowing it to move freely through the bloodstream. When free PSA levels are elevated, it may indicate the presence of aggressive prostate cancer. On the other hand, low levels of free PSA can suggest a condition like benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), where the prostate gland becomes enlarged but isn't cancerous. By evaluating the ratio of free PSA to total PSA, doctors can gain a better understanding of what's happening with the prostate gland. This information, combined with other diagnostic tests, helps doctors develop an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan.
