Is there a problem with high PSA levels?

Patient's question:

The prostate ultrasound performed was normal. Is there any issue with this? What should be noted? The data from last year was also the same.

Doctor's answer:

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a specific indicator for prostate cancer. Generally, it is less than 4 nanograms per milliliter. A PSA level between 4 and 10 is considered gray-scale. Further careful examination, such as a prostate biopsy, is required if there is fusion, such as abnormal digital rectal examination, color ultrasound, or MRI abnormalities. At your age, prostate cancer is unlikely to be considered, so I think periodic follow-up tests are sufficient. For patients with prostate conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If treatment is delayed, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
