This is a blood test that measures PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen), a marker commonly used to assess prostate health. It suits men who want to check their PSA level, particularly if they have urinary symptoms or want a baseline reading to discuss with a doctor.
1 biomarker as listed by Better2Know.
This test measures PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland. A raised PSA level does not on its own indicate cancer, but it is a marker doctors commonly use alongside other information when assessing prostate health, particularly in men experiencing urinary symptoms.
As a single-marker test it sits in the lower quarter of the men's health tests we track by clinical depth, which is expected given it measures one thing. Better2Know does not report a comparison group of directly equivalent PSA-style products for this specific listing, but at £145 it costs well above the £62 median for similarly sized men's health tests we track.
It scores well for clarity and documentation, since the listing explains what PSA is and how the test works, and reasonably for Collection Convenience, since a venous sample can be taken at a clinic or during a home nurse visit with results in around two days. It scores poorly on value for money given how far above the category median it sits, and on Results and Follow-up because a doctor does not review results as standard, though Better2Know says it will arrange a doctor consultation if PSA comes back raised.
This suits men who want to check their PSA level, for example because of urinary symptoms such as needing to urinate more often, a weak flow, or blood in urine or semen, or simply because they want a baseline reading. It offers a home nurse visit as an alternative to a clinic appointment if you would rather not travel.
Better2Know does not list a comparison group of directly equivalent products for this specific test, so we cannot point to a specific cheaper or deeper alternative from the data we hold.
A trained clinician takes a blood sample, either at a clinic or during a home nurse visit. The sample is sent to Better2Know's laboratory, with results normally available within about two days of arrival and uploaded to your secure online patient area; you are notified by phone, email or SMS. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, though Better2Know says it will arrange a doctor consultation if your PSA level is raised.

Samples are taken by venous draw at a clinic or during a home nurse visit, with results in around two days, though a doctor does not review them as standard. Better2Know does not list a comparison group of directly equivalent products for this test.
