What Is PSA?
PSA stands for prostate-specific antigen.
PSA is a protein made by the prostate gland. A small amount of PSA is normally found in the blood.
PSA levels may increase for several reasons, including prostate enlargement, prostate inflammation, infection, recent prostate manipulation, recent ejaculation or prostate cancer.

This blood test measures both total PSA and free PSA.
- Total PSA: Measures the total amount of PSA in the blood
- Free PSA: Measures PSA that is not bound to proteins in the blood
- Percent Free PSA: May be calculated by comparing free PSA to total PSA

- Also known as: Free and Total PSA, PSA Free:Total Ratio, Percent Free PSA Test

Total PSA vs Free PSA
Total PSA measures all PSA in the blood.
Free PSA measures PSA that is not attached to proteins.
Percent Free PSA may help a healthcare provider better evaluate certain PSA results, especially when total PSA is in a borderline range.
Important: PSA Does Not Diagnose Prostate Cancer by Itself
PSA testing can provide useful prostate-related information, but it does not diagnose prostate cancer by itself.
A high PSA does not always mean cancer is present, and a normal PSA does not completely rule out prostate cancer.
If PSA results are abnormal, a healthcare provider may recommend repeat PSA testing, digital rectal exam, urine testing, imaging, referral to urology or biopsy depending on the situation.
Factors That May Affect PSA Results
PSA levels may be affected by several factors.
- Prostate enlargement
- Prostatitis or prostate inflammation
- Urinary tract infection
- Recent ejaculation
- Recent prostate exam or procedure
- Recent catheter use
- Recent cycling or pressure on the prostate area
- Certain medications
Tell your healthcare provider about symptoms, medications, recent procedures and recent sexual activity before interpreting results.
Important Health Warning
If you have inability to urinate, severe pelvic pain, fever with urinary symptoms, blood in urine, severe back pain, unexplained weight loss, weakness, numbness, or any urgent medical concern, seek medical care promptly.
Do not use this test as a substitute for urgent medical evaluation, diagnosis or treatment.
