I share my four-year journey with elevated PSA levels and prostate health monitoring. After seeing my PSA jump from 0.9 to 2.7 in two years, I embarked on a thorough medical investigation including multiple biopsies, MRIs, and ultimately successful treatment with Dutasteride.

• PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) should ideally stay between 0-4 in men
• Rising PSA levels warrant investigation even when within normal range
• Underwent comprehensive testing including two 12-point biopsies, both negative for cancer
• Dutasteride treatment successfully lowered my PSA from 5.09 to 1.54
• Risk factors for prostate cancer include age, family history, and certain ethnicities
• Regular PSA testing is crucial for early detection and high survival rates
• Prostate cancer awareness shouldn't be limited to September

Get your PSA checked regularly. Don't allow September to be the only month that we are aware of prostate cancer. Do it annually. I do it twice a year. Reach out to me and I will provide the resources and information to help you take this important step for yourself and your family.
