Probably every manâs first concern is that elevated PSA levels mean prostate cancer. But a PSA test alone does not diagnose cancer â a firm diagnosis can be made only through biopsy. Once confirmed, a course of treatment is determined that is based on the stage of the cancer.
The PSA level also is determined in part by the size and weight of the prostate. The test measures the amount of PSA in the blood in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). A PSA of 4 ng/mL or lower is normal; 4â10 ng/mL is slightly elevated; 10â20 is moderately elevated; and 20â35 is highly elevated. Most men with slightly elevated PSA levels do not have prostate cancer, and many men with prostate cancer have normal PSA levels. A highly elevated level may indicate the presence of cancer.
