If a man’s PSA level is between 10.0 µg/L and 20.0 µg/L, there is a 67 percent chance of detecting prostate cancer. A PSA level of more than 20.0 µg/L means that prostate cancer is highly likely to be present and metastases can sometimes be seen on bone or computed tomography (CT) scans.

Chronic recurrent prostatitis. Benign prostatic hypertrophy. Post coital (a day after sexual intercourse). Prostate cancer.

In the range of 4 to 10 ng/mL PSA, prostate cancer is more likely to be present in men who have a low percentage of free PSA relative to the total amount of PSA. This ratio of free PSA to total PSA can help distinguish prostate cancer from benign prostatic conditions with a 20% reduction of biopsies while still detecting 95% of cancers.

The PSA test can find prostate cancer earlier than the DRE alone. The PSA test result can be high because of other prostate problems--so an elevated PSA does not always mean cancer. PSA can be higher because a man ejaculated in the 1-2 days before the test. Also, the PSA test results can sometimes be normal even if a man has prostate cancer.
PSA Levels: PSA Blood Tests and Prostate Cancer Screening
The PSA test is a blood test that measures the level of PSA (prostate specific antigen) in your blood. PSA is made by the prostate gland, and some of it will leak into your bloodstream depending on your age and the health of your prostate. A raised PSA level may mean you have prostate cancer.

What happens after a PSA test? The PSA test can miss cancer, so a negative test does not necessary mean you do not have prostate cancer. Equally, a raised PSA may mean you have prostate cancer, but the PSA can be falsely raised for a number of reasons. You must therefore make an appointment to see a GP even if the PSA test is normal or negative
