1. PSA TOTAL

Avoid vigorous activities and sexual activity for 48 hours before the test. Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking. No fasting is required.
Elevated PSA levels may suggest prostate inflammation, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate cancer. Further tests may be required for a definitive diagnosis.
Results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected.
Discuss the results with your healthcare provider to determine the next steps, which may include additional tests or a referral to a specialist for further evaluation.
