Prostate cancer: Have you experienced PSA fluctuations that didn’t indicate recurrence?

Hi everyone, how are you doing today? 😊

For men who have undergone prostate cancer treatment, tracking PSA levels can be a source of stress. While PSA monitoring is important, fluctuations in PSA don’t always mean the cancer has come back. Factors like recent treatments, natural variations, or even a PSA bounce after radiation therapy can cause temporary changes.

❓ Have you ever experienced a rise in PSA that turned out to be nothing serious?

❓ How did your doctor explain PSA fluctuations to you?

❓ What advice would you give to someone worried about a rising PSA level?
