PSA is the prostate specific antigen and one of the most important tools to help diagnose prostate cancer. The PSA-test is a simple blood test. PSA is an enzyme that is produced in the prostate gland. The higher the PSA, the greater the chances that there might be prostate cancer. In this video on UroChannel, dr. med. dr. phil. Stefan Buntrock, urologist from Göttingen, explains what PSA is normal for a man without prostate cancer. Depending on possible urinary tract infections, the size of the prostate and the age of the men, normal values may vary quite a bit. As a rule of thumb, a 60-year-old has an average PSA of 1.0 ng/ml. Any value below that has a very low likelihood for death by prostate cancer later in life. All men should know about this marker and make up their mind when they turn 50, because this type of cancer affects people during the second half of life.
