Professional analysis in an accredited laboratory ensures rapid result delivery.
Tests which include a Free PSA test:
What if Free PSA Results Are High?
A higher free PSA ratio is often associated with a benign (non-cancerous) cause of a raised PSA.
This result is commonly interpreted alongside the total PSA and any other relevant findings when deciding how it is monitored over time.
What if Free PSA Results Are Low?
Low free PSA relative to total PSA can be associated with a higher likelihood of prostate cancer compared with a higher free-to-total PSA ratio.
This pattern is often used as an additional piece of information alongside the total PSA result when considering possible explanations for an elevated PSA.
Why Take The Free PSA Test?
This test is used alongside total PSA to help distinguish benign prostate enlargement from cancer risk. It can provide more clarity when PSA levels are borderline or moderately raised. It supports more informed decisions about further investigation.
