Raising awareness this September could mean a father, brother, partner, or son is diagnosed earlier — when survival rates are far higher — yet right now, only 36% of cases are found at stage 1.
PSA Blood Test
The primary test used to measure the level of prostate-specific antigen in your blood. Elevated levels can signal issues, though not always cancer.
Who and when should you get tested?
Average Risk (Ages 50–69): Discuss testing with a doctor every two years.
Higher Risk (Ages 45–49 or earlier): Men with a family history (such as a father or brother diagnosed with prostate cancer) or other high-risk factors should start discussions and testing earlier, around age 45.
Age 70 and Older: Routine screening is generally not recommended, and further testing is based on an individual clinical assessment.
