The free PSA percent (%) test in Hoshiarpur is performed to detect the presence of prostate cancer in individuals. It measures the levels of free and total PSA (prostate specific antigen) and their ratio.
PSA or the prostate specific antigen is an enzyme that is mainly produced by the prostate gland, which is a part of the male urinary and reproductive systems. PSA is mainly found in the semen, which is also produced by the prostate, though trace amounts of the enzyme can also be found in the blood. PSA binds itself to the protein present in semen and breaks them down. Based on whether it is bound to any proteins, PSA is categorised into two types – free PSA and bound PSA. The free PSA percent (serum) test in Hoshiarpur measures the levels of free PSA and total PSA in the blood, which are used to calculate the ratio of free to total PSA. The results of the free and total PSA test in Hoshiarpur, along with their ratio, can help doctors analyse one’s risk of developing prostate cancer. Based on the results, a doctor may prescribe further test in Hoshiarpurs as well for a more detailed diagnosis.
