Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Test Usage

Written by FoundHealth.

Reasons for Test

The PSA test is used to:

  • Screen for prostate cancer
  • Monitor treatment for prostate cancer
  • Help determine if cancer has returned in men who have already been treated for prostate cancer

An elevated PSA level may also be associated with prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate) and an enlarged prostate ( benign prostatic hyperplasia ).
