About the Prostate Specific Antigen (Total) (Venous)*
The Prostate Specific Antigen (Total) (Venous)* is an individual blood test offered at our private clinic in London. A venous blood is collected by a registered nurse during an appointment lasting approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 1 day" and are delivered securely via email.
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by both normal and abnormal cells of the prostate gland. The PSA test measures the level of this protein in the blood. While PSA levels can be elevated for a number of reasons — including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, or recent physical activity — the test is commonly used as part of prostate health assessment. The NHS notes that PSA testing has limitations and is not used as a definitive diagnostic tool on its own. Results should be discussed with a qualified healthcare professional who can interpret them in the context of individual risk factors and clinical history.
Who May Consider This Test
The Prostate Specific Antigen (Total) (Venous)* may be relevant for a range of individuals. The following are common reasons people choose to have this test:
- Men over 50 who wish to include prostate health in a check-up
- Men over 45 with a family history of prostate cancer
- Men of Black African or Black Caribbean heritage, who have a higher statistical risk
- Those experiencing urinary symptoms such as frequency or difficulty
- Men whose GP has recommended PSA monitoring
