At Kegel8, we’re proud to offer this easy-to-use home testing kit, trusted by many of our customers to support their health awareness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis quick finger-prick blood spot test detects raised PSA levels, which may be associated with prostate issues such as prostatitis, an enlarged prostate, a urinary infection, or, less commonly, prostate cancer. It’s important to know that while PSA is a marker for prostate abnormalities, a raised PSA level does not necessarily mean cancer – in fact, 3 in 4 men with a raised PSA won’t have cancer. Likewise, some men with normal PSA levels may still have cancer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003ciframe id=\"youTubeIframe\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/k4rWefMK_xk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat’s why the SELFCheck Prostate Health Test is a valuable tool to monitor your prostate health and discuss any concerns with your GP.
