Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced naturally by prostate cells and released into the bloodstream in small amounts. PSA plays a role in normal reproductive function; however, when the prostate becomes irritated, inflamed, enlarged, or undergoes abnormal cellular changes, PSA levels in the blood may rise. Elevated PSA is commonly associated with conditions such […]

Its production is stimulated and controlled by luteinizing hormone (LH), which is manufactured in the pituitary gland. Testosterone works within a negative feedback mechanism: as testosterone increases, LH decreases, whereas increased LH causes decreased […]
