Thank you all. I do tend to over worry. At this point I only have 2 PSA data points from 2023 and almost exactly 2 years later in August of 2025. I suppose a 1.4 to 2.0 PSA in 2 years isn't something I need to constantly worry about at this point, but it did go up. I will shoot for 6 month rechecks and hope for the best.

A good strategy…

I am going to give you a bit of a contradictory answer. I was dx with Stage 3a high-grade prostate cancer with a psa of 2.5. I was having an annual psa and dre. They reassured me i was okay based on the low psa as I watched it climb annually, but then this year, they felt a nodule. My story does not change the statistics. You are very likely okay but i definitely would do the 6 months you suggested at least. My Dad had prostate cancer and I just had a feeling I had it even though the PSA could easily have just been aging etc.. I am 66.
