Research has not yet proven that the potential benefits of testing outweigh the harms of testing and treatment, and men should not be tested without learning about what we know and don’t know about the risks and possible benefits of testing and treatment.
Starting at age 50, men should talk to a doctor about the pros and cons of testing so they can decide whether testing is the right choice for them.
If you are African American, or have a father or brother who had prostate cancer before age 65, you should begin having this discussion with a doctor when you reach the age of 45.
