PSA Profile near me in Mumbai









The PSA Profile measures the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels (both free and total) and percent free PSA in the blood. It is available at an affordable price in Mumbai with Tata 1mg labs. PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland and is present in semen. It helps with sperm motility during ejaculation in males. Higher-than-normal PSA levels may indicate an enlarged or inflamed prostate, urinary tract infection or irritation, or other problems with the prostate gland.
The PSA Profile can also be used to detect and monitor prostate cancer progression and check for cancer recurrence in those who have completed prostate cancer treatment.
No special preparation is required for this test. You may eat and drink as per your daily routine. However, your doctor may ask you to avoid sexual intercourse for at least 48 hours before your test, as semen release can increase your PSA levels, leading to inaccurate results. Also, avoid giving a sample within seven days of the digital rectal examination (DRE) or rectal prostatic ultrasonography.








What does PSA Profile measure?
Contains 3 testsThe PSA Profile measures prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, a protein secreted by the prostate gland in males. Most of the PSA produced in the body passes in the seminal fluid, and only a small amount is secreted into the blood. It is found in two forms in blood: bound PSA (bound to other proteins) and free PSA. The test measures both free and bound forms of PSA as well as percent free PSA.
The Prostate Specific Antigen (Free) PSA test measures the level of free prostate-specific antigen in the blood. PSA, a protein produced by prostate gland cells, circulates through the body in two ways: bound to other proteins or on its own. PSA circulating unbound in the blood is called free PSA. The total PSA test measures the total of both bound and free PSA, while the free PSA measures the level of unbound PSA alone.
Free PSA levels in the blood get affected in conditions affecting prostate health, such as prostate enlargement (benign prostatic enlargement or BPH) and prostate cancer. Prostate cancer does not show any symptoms in its early stages but may be fatal as it progresses to its advanced stages. Therefore, a free PSA test, along with other tests like total PSA, can be used as an early diagnosis and primary screening test for prostate health.

The PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) Total test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the blood. It is a protein secreted by the prostate gland in men, both by normal as well as malignant cells. It exists in two forms: free PSA and bound PSA (attached to certain proteins in the blood). PSA helps sperm move during ejaculation, and only a small amount is released into the blood. High PSA levels may signal an enlarged prostate, inflammation of the prostate, infection, or cancer. Low PSA levels do not always rule out that the disease is gone.
The PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) Total test is intended as an adjunct screening test to identify prostate cancer, along with other investigations like DRE or a biopsy.
