A single blood test measuring prostate specific antigen (PSA), a marker commonly used to help assess prostate cancer risk. Suited to men aged 45 and over, or 40 and over if at higher risk, as part of regular monitoring.
1 biomarker as listed by Selph.
The PSA Blood Test measures a single marker, prostate specific antigen (PSA), which is commonly used to help assess a man's risk of prostate cancer alongside age and other factors. PSA levels are interpreted against age-related thresholds, and a raised result is generally followed by further investigation, such as an MRI scan, rather than being treated as a diagnosis in itself.
Against the eight PSA tests in this comparison group, Selph's price of £59 sits exactly at the median. Cheaper options include Randox Health's PSA Test at £33 and Medichecks' PSA test at £45, while pricier options include Thriva at £65 and Bluecrest Wellness at £85; all of these check the same single PSA marker.
Collection convenience and trust signals both score highly, reflecting the choice of finger-prick, clinic or nurse-visit collection and a doctor-reviewed report delivered in about a day. Because this is a single-marker test by design, the clinical depth score reflects that it measures exactly what it sets out to, rather than being marked down for narrow coverage.
This suits men who specifically want to check their PSA level, whether as routine monitoring from their mid-40s or to follow up on urinary symptoms with a doctor. Guidance generally supports starting from around 45, or earlier if you have other risk factors such as family history. If price is your main concern, Randox Health's PSA Test checks the same single marker for £33, notably less than Selph's £59.
You collect a finger-prick blood sample at home using the included kit, or choose Tasso EasyDraw, a clinic visit, a home nurse visit or your own venous draw at extra cost. Once your sample reaches Selph's lab, results are typically ready in about a day and come with a written report from a Selph doctor explaining what your PSA level means.
This £59 PSA test checks a single marker, prostate specific antigen, used to help assess prostate cancer risk.

Cheaper than most PSA tests we track, but not the cheapest
Measures PSA, a protein produced by the prostate, commonly used to assess prostate health. Suited to those in a higher-risk group by age, ethnicity or family history.
Mid-priced single-marker PSA test
A single-marker blood test measuring PSA, used to help assess prostate health and flag levels that may need further investigation by a GP.
Mid-priced PSA test, below the group median
A single-marker blood test measuring prostate specific antigen, aimed at men monitoring prostate health, including those over 50 or with a family history of prostate cancer.
Cheapest PSA self-test in the comparison group
A rapid at-home finger-prick blood test for PSA, a marker commonly used to help assess prostate health, particularly in men over 50.
Below-median PSA test price with no routine doctor review
A single blood test that measures PSA, a protein linked to prostate health, for men who want a quick baseline reading or to track changes over time.
At-home PSA kit, £13 pricier than Randox's clinic test
An at-home version of Randox's PSA blood test, collected with a device that draws blood from the upper arm rather than a finger-prick, for men who want to avoid a clinic visit.
Priced above most named PSA test competitors
This is a home finger-prick blood test that measures PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen), a marker commonly used to assess prostate health. It suits men who want a private, at-home check, particularly if they have urinary symptoms.
Widest collection choice, priciest named PSA test we track
PSA (prostate specific antigen) is a blood marker commonly used to help assess prostate health in men. It suits men who want to monitor this marker, for example as part of a wider men's health check, alongside advice from a GP for any symptoms.
Most expensive PSA test among its named peers
This is a clinic-based or home-nurse blood test measuring PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen), a marker commonly used to assess prostate health. It suits men who prefer a clinician to take the sample rather than testing at home.
Most expensive PSA test in our comparison, no doctor review
A single blood test that measures prostate specific antigen (PSA), a marker commonly used to assess prostate health. Suitable for men, particularly those over 40 with a family history or symptoms to discuss with a GP.
Cheaper than most PSA tests we track, but not the cheapest

Mid-priced PSA test, below the group median
A single-marker blood test measuring prostate specific antigen, aimed at men monitoring prostate health, including those over 50 or with a family history of prostate cancer.
Cheapest PSA self-test in the comparison group
