Brief Answer:
No

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
FBC stands for Full Blood Count. This test in my part of the world only stands for Hb, WBC total and differential and platelet count.
PSA is not included in it.
Note: Consult a Urologist online for consultation about prostate and bladder problems, sexual dysfunction, kidney stones, prostate enlargement, urinary incontinence, impotence and erectile dysfunction - Click here.
