A prostate test is a medical procedure used to screen for prostate cancer and other prostate-related conditions. It typically involves a blood test to measure levels of a protein produced by the prostate gland called prostate-specific antigen (PSA).
If you tested positive we recomend to reach out to your GP for a rectal exam, where a healthcare provider manually checks the size, shape, and texture of the prostate gland. Prostate tests are important for men, especially those over the age of 50 or with a family history of prostate cancer, to monitor and detect any potential issues early on. This test can help in early detection and treatment of prostate cancer, increasing the chances of successful outcomes.
