Facts. Fears. What To Watch For.
A friend of mine—a tough, healthy biker—had a high PSA in his 40s. But he laughed it off: "All bikers have high PSAs." He felt great. No symptoms. So he did nothing.
Years later, a new girlfriend gave him an ultimatum: "I don’t date unhealthy men. Go get a real physical." His PSA had jumped to 12. The biopsy confirmed it—aggressive, metastatic prostate cancer.
If he had acted in his 40s, his life could’ve been saved.
Don’t Wait for Symptoms
Many men ignore early warning signs or dismiss abnormal numbers because they feel fine. But prostate cancer often shows no symptoms in its early stages. Watch for:
- Urination changes
- Blood in urine or semen
- Back or pelvic pain
- Nighttime urgency
What To Do
- Know your family history
- Get screened starting at 50—or earlier if you’re high risk
- Don’t ignore "just a number"
Early action can mean the difference between living well and not living long. At TREVI Health—Longevity & Aesthetics, we incorporate comprehensive cancer screening into our longevity programs because prevention is always the best medicine.
