Prostate Profile
This profile combines total PSA with a set of inflammatory markers — interleukin-8, MCP-1 and epidermal growth factor — that feed into a composite prostate cancer risk score.
Is the Prostate Profile right for you?
- Men aged 50 and over wanting to assess prostate cancer risk as part of a proactive health check
- Men aged 45 and over with a family history of prostate cancer
- Black men aged 45 and over, who carry a two- to three-fold higher risk
- Lower urinary tract symptoms — reduced flow, hesitancy, frequency or waking to urinate at night
- Wanting to track PSA-related markers as part of ongoing prostate monitoring
5 markers, explained in plain English
This profile combines total PSA with a set of inflammatory markers — interleukin-8, MCP-1 and epidermal growth factor — that feed into a composite prostate cancer risk score. The aim is to give a fuller assessment of risk than PSA alone, helping reduce false positives. It is a screening and risk-assessment investigation, not a diagnosis: a raised result does not mean cancer is present, and a clinician reviews every result alongside your history before advising on next steps.
Markers you can also test on their own
Every marker in the Prostate Profile can also be booked individually. Tap a marker to learn what it measures and why it's tested.

Your questions about the Prostate Profile
How is this different from a simple PSA test? +
A standard PSA test measures one marker. This profile combines total PSA with inflammatory markers and a composite prostate cancer risk score, designed to give a fuller picture of risk and help reduce false positives. A clinician interprets the result alongside your history.
Will this test diagnose prostate cancer? +
No. It is a screening and risk-assessment investigation, not a diagnosis. A raised result does not mean cancer is present — common causes include benign prostatic enlargement and prostatitis. A clinician reviews every result and advises on next steps, which may include referral.
Is there anything I should avoid before the test? +
Certain activities can temporarily affect PSA. Our team will advise on any preparation when you book so your result is as reliable as possible.
