Once you collect a blood sample from the comfort of your own home, just send it in to use in the prepaid mailer provided. You'll receive your results fast and learn a thing or two about your health in the process.

Small amount of PSA can get into your bloodstream, which is how this test can measure it. There are certain prostate conditions that can raise your PSA level. While high PSA levels is not in and of itself harmful, it can be an indicator of possible prostate disease.

PSA blood test is considered the most effective test currently available for the early detection of prostate cancer. 

According to National Cancer Institute each year, more than 186,000 American men learn they have this disease. Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer among men in this country.

The following risk factors for prostate cancer:

Age over 65: Age is the main risk factor for prostate cancer. The chance of getting prostate cancer increases as you get older. In the United States, most men with prostate cancer are over 65. This disease is rare in men under 45.

Family history: Your risk is higher if your father, brother, or son had prostate cancer.

Certain prostate changes: Men with cells called high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) may be at increased risk of prostate cancer. These prostate cells look abnormal under a microscope.

Certain genome changes: Researchers have found specific regions on certain chromosomes that are linked to the risk of prostate cancer. According to recent studies, if a man has a genetic change in one or more of these regions, the risk of prostate cancer may be increased. The risk increases with the number of genetic changes that are found. Also, other studies have shown an elevated risk of prostate cancer among men with changes in certain genes, such as BRCA1 and BRCA2.

The Prostate Specific Antigen PSA blood test is a laboratory procedure that measures a substance produced by the prostate gland called Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA). Small amounts of this substance may get into the bloodstream and can be measured by the PSA test. Certain conditions of the prostate may raise the level of PSA in the blood. Although high levels of PSA are not harmful, they are an important signal of possible prostate disease. PSA test provides you with an accurate, convenient, and inexpensive way to discover you own PSA level.

How Does PSA Test Work?

The specimen collection process is quick and virtually painless. Using the special finger lancet, which is included in the Blood Collection Kit, a couple of drops of blood are taken from a nick of the finger and placed on a small collection card. The card is then sent to a CLIA Certified Laboratory for analysis.

After testing your blood sample to see how much PSA is present and then reports the results in an easy-to-read, understandable form.
