Prostate PSA test 7.0 μg/L is high, it is recommended to retest or measure the f-PSA to t-PSA ratio, or take imaging etc. to confirm the diagnosis.
Prostate PSA (prostate-specific antigen) is a glycoprotein secreted by the prostate gland, and the normal reference level of PSA is usually <4 μg/L. Significantly elevated levels are often closely associated with prostate cancer.
Since PSA is often elevated after anal examination, prostate massage, cystoscopy, or prostate surgery, men often need to be retested a few days later. When the PSA level is between 4 and 10 μg/L, it is often necessary to combine the ratio of f-PSA (free PSA) and t-PSA (total PSA) to determine the level of PSA, and if the ratio decreases, it is suggestive of prostate cancer. If necessary, a combination of imaging such as MRI is also required.
Therefore, the level is high, and it is recommended to consult a doctor in time for standardized diagnosis and treatment.
