You’ve been told your PSA is “normal” because it’s under 4.0.

But what if that number doesn’t tell the full story?

For decades, men were reassured that anything below 4.0 ng/mL was safe. Today, we know that prostate cancer risk is far more nuanced. PSA must be interpreted in context — including age, prostate volume, PSA density, and changes over time.

In this episode, I explain:

• Why the 4.0 cutoff is outdated
• What PSA density actually means
• When a rising PSA matters — even if it’s “normal”
• Who should consider MRI before biopsy
• How to avoid the common PSA interpretation traps

If you want to understand your PSA results clearly before your next doctor’s visit, this episode will help you connect the dots.
