Hello,

Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by prostate cells. This test may be done to screen for prostate cancer. It is also used to follow people after prostate cancer treatment to see if cancer has come back. The normal range for 60-69 years old men is considered to be 4.0 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) of blood.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
