Patient's question:
Doctor, a while ago, the company organized a health check-up. I don't know what happened, but I found that my free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level was low. I'm really worried and don't know what it means. I want to ask what the impact of a low free PSA level might be. Please let me know. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Free prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are reduced, which actually means there is an issue with the quantity of PSA. This condition is related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatitis. Of course, a decrease in free PSA is not good, while an increase is not necessarily a major problem and can even be considered a relatively normal situation. Therefore, there is no need to be overly anxious. The main thing is to have regular follow-up tests. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
