Not reliably on its own, and this is important to understand. Tumour markers can be raised in entirely harmless conditions and can be normal in people who do have cancer. They are used to monitor a known diagnosis or support other investigations — never as a standalone answer. Diagnosis requires imaging and usually a biopsy.

Generally no, unless a doctor has advised it. Testing tumour markers without symptoms or risk factors commonly produces mildly raised results from benign causes, leading to anxiety and unnecessary further tests. Proper cancer screening means mammography, Pap smear, colonoscopy or low-dose CT depending on age and risk — not a blood panel.

Most often benign prostatic enlargement, which is extremely common with age. Prostatitis, a recent urinary infection, catheterisation, cycling and even recent ejaculation can all raise PSA. It can also be raised in prostate cancer, which is why it is used — but a raised value needs a urologist's assessment, not a conclusion.

PSA Total is ₹350 and PSA Free ₹420. CA-125, CA 15.3 and CA 19.9 are ₹600 each. CEA and AFP are ₹540 each, and Beta HCG is ₹350. We price them individually rather than as a bundle, because they should be ordered selectively rather than all at once.

Yes. Avoid ejaculation, cycling and vigorous exercise for 48 hours before the test, as all can raise PSA. Tell us if you have had a recent urinary infection or a catheter, since these raise it substantially and it is better to wait than to test and misinterpret.

Completely. Your report is sent only to your own WhatsApp number as a PDF. Nothing is discussed at the counter and no result is shared with anyone else. These tests carry understandable anxiety and we handle them accordingly.

Take the report to a doctor before drawing any conclusion. Mildly raised markers have benign explanations far more often than not, and the correct next step depends entirely on which marker, how raised, and your history. Please do not search the number online and assume the worst — that is genuinely not how these results work.
