If you've reached an age where prostate health is on your mind, or a family diagnosis has made you want to keep an eye on things, a PSA test is a simple way to start. PSACheck is a private, at-home PSA blood test that helps you understand more about your prostate health, taken whenever suits you. The test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in your blood. A raised PSA level can sometimes be associated with prostate cancer, but it can also be caused by non-cancerous conditions, including an enlarged prostate, prostatitis or a urine infection. A PSA test cannot diagnose prostate cancer or confirm that you do not have it. If your PSA result is raised, further tests and assessment by a healthcare professional may be needed. Simple at-home blood collection kit: Collect a small blood sample using a finger-prick test and return it to the laboratory in the packaging provided. No doctor’s appointment needed to collect your sample: Test from home with ease.Take the test privately at home, at a time that suits you. Expert clinical support: Your results are reviewed within Check4Cancer’s clinically led pathway, with clear guidance about what they mean and what to do next. Fast, confidential results: Your sample is analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory operating to ISO 15189 standards, with secure results available within five working days of the laboratory receiving your sample.
