@ozelli I agree with this. I had a DRE after my PSA rose and the urologist said if he felt 100 prostates today, mine would feel the most normal. He still sent me for an MRI and my lesion was found. Don’t settle for a DRE if you have other markers/symptoms.

@jcf58
yep I had many DRE exams along the way ( 5 or 6 in last 6 months) to PC diagnosis..mine felt normal..in fact yrs ago in HOuston I had a doc tell me I would never have any prostate problems that my prostate was small and smooth/firm " like a 20 yr old lad's" and PC would prob never affect me ..and yet here I am !
