Importance of Blood Testing for Optimal Health
Blood tests provide critical information that helps healthcare professionals identify factors that may hinder optimal health.
Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Test
The PSA test measures levels of PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland. Elevated PSA levels can indicate various conditions, including:
* Enlarged prostate
* Prostate inflammation
* Prostate cancer
* Urinary tract infection
PSA levels can also be elevated in men with bone health issues.
Estradiol Test
Estradiol, a type of estrogen, is essential for various physiological functions in both women and men. In women, estradiol levels are crucial for evaluating menopausal status and reproductive health. In men, elevated estradiol levels may indicate:
* Breast enlargement
* Reduced libido
* Urinary problems
Estradiol tests enable personalized, safer, and more cost-effective treatments.
