[Revealed] The WORST Way to Check Prostate Cancer

If you’ve been treated for prostate cancer, you’ve probably been through hell.

And now you just want to get on with your life.

But your doctor won’t let you.

Every few months, he’ll have you come in for yet another PSA test—and voilà! They’ve got a customer for life.

Is all that testing really helping you?

You might be surprised by the answer.

If you’ve been treated for prostate cancer, you can count on PSA screenings being a regular part of the rest of your life.

Just how regular…that’s up to you.

There are no set guidelines for how often to get your PSA tested after being treated for prostate cancer, and recommendations can range from every three months to once a year.

Is one timeline more beneficial than the other? No one really knows.

That’s what this newest study is all about…establishing more consistent guidelines for the future.

Researchers gathered data from over 10,000 prostate cancer patients over a five-year period, comparing people who were screened every three months to those tested once a year.

Their goal was simple: To see if getting a PSA done more frequently helped men live longer.

After all, that should be the ultimate goal of any testing, treatment, or intervention, right?

The results?

There was virtually NO difference between the patients who were dragged into their doctor’s office every three months, compared to those who only went once a year.

No surprise there.

But when your doctor is pushing you into more frequent testing, it can be difficult to say no.

This latest study should give you the information you need to make informed decisions for your health.

And with any luck, it will influence future guidelines as well.

To a brighter day,
