Order PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) Blood Test from JustLabs for $12 ($30 all-in for a single-test order: $12 + one $18 lab & physician order fee per order). Price includes lab processing at Quest Diagnostics. No insurance required.
PSA is a protein produced by the prostate gland. Elevated levels can indicate prostate cancer, enlarged prostate, or prostatitis. This test is a key tool for prostate cancer screening.
Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced exclusively by prostate cells. Small amounts normally leak into the bloodstream, but elevated levels can signal prostate problems including cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or infection.
PSA testing has been instrumental in detecting prostate cancer early, when it's most treatable. However, PSA is not specific to cancer—it can be elevated by non-cancerous conditions. This has led to debate about routine screening, as elevated PSA may lead to further testing and potential overtreatment of slow-growing cancers.
Current guidelines recommend shared decision-making: men should discuss the benefits and risks of PSA screening with their healthcare provider, considering their individual risk factors and preferences.

When to Get Tested
No fasting required. Avoid ejaculation for 24-48 hours before testing. Wait 6 weeks after prostate biopsy, prostate surgery, or urinary tract infection, as these can temporarily elevate PSA.

Understanding Your Results
Traditional cutoff: 4.0 ng/mL. However, age-specific ranges are often used: 40-49: 0-2.5, 50-59: 0-3.5, 60-69: 0-4.5, 70+: 0-6.5 ng/mL. PSA velocity (rate of change) is also important. Elevated PSA warrants discussion with a urologist.
