The PSA test measures levels of a substance in the blood (Prostate Specific Antigen) that can signal a problem in the prostate.
PSA is made by the prostate gland. Some of it will leak into your blood, and the amount depends on your age and the health of your prostate. An increased level of PSA in your blood may mean cancer is present. This test is a good indicator and can mean you get the further screening you need.
