Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Testing
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK with around 1 in 8 men being diagnosed in their lifetime. The key to beating it is early detection.
The PSA test is a simple blood test that helps identify potential prostate issues early on. While it’s not a perfect diagnostic tool, it’s an essential first step in protecting men’s health.
Why Get Screened?
- 1 in 8 Men in the UK will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.
- That rate increases to 1 in 4 for Afro-Caribbean males.
- Early Detection Saves Lives: When caught early, prostate cancer has a high survival rate.
- Simple, Painless Testing: PSA testing involves a quick blood test and gives vital information about your health.
Join One of Our Screening Sessions
We are offering Portsmouth businesses a simple PSA screening test for male employees over the age of 40 through the Prostate Cancer Support Organisation.
As we have individuals within the Shaping Portsmouth Community who have already had PSA tests with high results and been diagnosed with prostate cancer, we can also offer direct support around what needs to happen next for those who may return a high result.
Protect Your Future and Those Who Count on You
Prostate cancer can often be treated successfully if caught early. By getting screened, you’re not only taking care of yourself but also ensuring peace of mind for your family. Take five minutes to have a PSA screening test.
