3.7 PSA result

Hi all. I’m very new to this.  My partner asked me to go for a PSA test.  I’m 52 and fairly heathy.  I have always urinated a lot even in my 20’s.  Since seeing the doctor. I have cut down on caffeine and alcohol which has really helped.

However, he performed a rectal examination and said my prostrate with smooth and I had nothing to worry about. My PSA result came back at 3.7 and the range should be between 0-3.5.

He has referred me to a urologist and also fast tracked me.

Had anyone else had this before as it’s worrying me and my partner?

  • Hi

    I think from what we have just experienced, your doctor is adopting a ‘belt & braces’ approach, which is brilliant. 

    My husband has just been fastracked with a PSA of 46 unfortunately our news isn’t good, as the Cancer has spread. 

    Try not to worry the fact that the prostrate is smooth is a good sign, the biospy isn’t half a bad as people think it’s going to be, you’re in the best hands and if there is anything there, it can be caught and treated.
