Patient's question:
Last year, the prostate antigen test result was 5.7 with a percentage of 12.81. Today, the antigen test result is 3.770 with a percentage of 13.81.Doctor's answer:
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels below 4 are not a concern. The 5.7 you checked two years ago was slightly better, and the issue wasn't too serious. Some foreign studies have mentioned that PSA levels below 18 at age 50 are highly unlikely to develop prostate cancer again. If your family has a history of the condition, you can get tested annually after age 50, preferably on an empty stomach.If your recent test results are normal, patients with prostate conditions can follow symptomatic treatment while using home remedies as supplementary therapy. It's important to avoid extreme hunger or fullness in daily diet and never overeat or binge drink.
