A PSA of 0.05 six weeks after the prostate has been removed - this is good. It is not uncommon during the recovery period following an operation that the PSA levels are quite low. This tells us that the prostate was removed. The PSA values regularly need to be measured to check that they are within the norm. Low PSA levels following the surgery are the ones that suggest the cancer has been successfully eliminated.

I have prostate from past 5 years and recent PSA is 3.87 and I did it again after 1 week it is 3.92 Whether I should plan operation or not? What to do?

Male | 64

A PSA level of 3.87 to 3.92 is a little high, but not too high. It's good that you are keeping an eye on it. Prostate enlargement is due to many reasons, but not all cases are treated with surgery. You should keep checking with your oncologist and follow the monitoring of your PSA levels to decide what is best for you.

You have metastatic prostate cancer, which has spread to the lymph nodes. This can cause symptoms like difficulty urinating, bone pain, and fatigue. Medications like Enzalutamide and Degarelix Injection can slow the growth of cancer cells and help manage these symptoms. It's important to follow your oncologist's instructions carefully and attend all appointments to monitor your progress.

we have to do pet psma scan for and male of age 81 years so all details regaridng it

Male | 81

Prostate-specific membrane antigen scan is used to evaluate prostate cancer by finding out if this cancer has metastasized. This kind of scan gives the doctors the ability to see if cancer has begun to spread. In elderly men, with examples such as an 81-year-old male, prostate cancer is quite common. Its symptoms may include painful urination or blood in urine. The scan can define the treatment approach best. It's harmless, and that's why it is recommended to gather enough information about malignancy to guide the patient's treatment.

Male | 40

Your friend has prostate cancer and chemo. Trying weed gummies with CBD may not be safe. It could react badly with his medications. Before using new sleep aids, it's smart to talk to his oncologist first. The doctor knows better options that are safer and can help him sleep.
