Don't panic. You will throw yourself into an over treatment free for all. If there's no other background or context regarding prostate issues, then the PSA is normal, regardless of spike. What is your PSA density? Which can be calculated by knowing your prostate size in CC divided by your current PSA level. If it's .15 and below your good, likely BPH. PSA is not an indication of PC, read that again, it is not an indication of cancer. I wish my PSA was 2.0 I'd be jumping for joy. Continue to monitor.

@airborn
Thank you

@airborn I believe the calculation is PSA level divided by prostate volume, not the reverse.
