What should I expect from this Prostate Profile?

Please note that the PSA test cannot be solely relied upon to diagnose or exclude prostate cancer. If the PSA level is high, further investigations with a Urologist will be necessary. Even if the PSA level is low and you have symptoms, it is still important to consult a doctor for further investigations.

The prostate is responsible for producing a fluid that mixes with sperm to create semen. Issues with the prostate are common, especially as men age, and if left undiagnosed, they can lead to serious conditions such as prostate cancer.

Conditions identified by this test include:

  • Prostate

    Prostate (3 Biomarkers)

There are various hormones in the body that support different bodily functions and processes, such as growth, metabolism, appetite, and fertility. Hormone imbalances or deficiencies can be associated with a wide range of symptoms and conditions.

The test includes the following components:

Total Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Total Prostate Specific Antigen measures the overall amount of prostate-specific antigen produced by the cells in the prostate gland. This test is used to detect and monitor the treatment response of prostate cancer.

Free Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Free Prostate Specific Antigen is produced by the cells in the prostate gland. It refers to proteins that are not bound to any other proteins in the blood. This test is used to detect and monitor the treatment response of prostate cancer.

Free: Total PSA Ratio

The Free: Total PSA Ratio is a calculation that indicates the proportion of free prostate-specific antigen to the total amount of prostate-specific antigen in the body. This test, which measures the PSA levels in the blood, is used to detect and monitor the treatment response of prostate cancer.
