There has been controversy over PSA screening for a number of years. The evidence began piling up about a decade ago that the PSA test leads to overdiagnosis and overtreatment. It is true that an elevated PSA may indicate prostate cancer. However, the PSA is not specific for prostate cancer and could also indicate other prostate related conditions. Many argue that prostate cancers are so slow growing that they may never even put a man’s health or life at risk, and that many men with prostate cancer will die with it, not of it.
