Hello doctors. i'm a 62 year-old male. how much of an increase in psa over how much time would need to be checked for possible prostate cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hello!. It all depends on the base line PSA and the rate of increase. It is my advice that you see a Urologist and also have a rectal exam- he/she will guide you after reviewing the numbers (PSA)
