Thank you for writing.

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

Men over 50 may have higher levels that men under 50 (men under 50 have "normal" levels of about 4.0 ng/ml or lower. Having a higher level that this, however, does not mean a man has prostate cancer. Your level would appear normal. Please talk to your doctor if you have concerns.
Best,
Susan
