What are the normal dog levels?
Antigen specific prostate (PSA) is a protein that licks sperm in preparation for ejaculation. It is also believed that the dog helps sperm to penetrate the mucosa that covers the female cervix. Normal dog levels are 4 nanograms per millilitr (ng/ml) or lower. The metering of the dog is generally considered to be one of the most effective tests of the presence of prostate cancer
The dog is found in a number of body fluids, but the most important level of the dog for the prostate test is in the blood, which is called a serum dog. Serum dog level with a range of 4-10 ng/ml can indicate the presence of prostate cancer. Further testing must be performed to confirm the initial dog level and the presence of prostate cancer. Testing may include digital rectal examination, ultrasonic imaging and prostate biopsy to evaluate the size and strength of the prostate and search for tumors and cancer cells. It is also possible to have normal dog levels and still have prostate cancer.
At the PSA level, other factors can affect. For exampleD is generally expected that normal dog levels will be much less than 4 ng/ml, but an older man can have a dog level at the upper limit of normal. This is due to the damage that occurs with the prostate with age. Prostate enlargement, which is not caused by prostate cancer, called benign prostate hypertrophy, could bring the dog's level slightly higher than it could be considered non -violating in a younger man who has no prostate problems. Other factors that increase the PSA levels include recent ejaculation, prostate infections or irritation and digital rectal examination, although digital rectal examination increases the dog substantially only in men who already have higher PSA levels.
Most of the dog is tied to the protein of blood serum, but there is a percentage that is not bound to blood serum protein. This is called free dog. The usual dog test measures the total amount in Blood without distinguishing between free and overall dog. In men whose levels of dogs are above 4 ng/ml, measurement of a percentage voThe lining dog in the overall level could prevent unnecessary prostate biopsy. Free dog levels of more than 25 percent of the total number are considered normal limits.
