For a 45-year-old individual PSA > 2.5ng/dL (Normal from 06 to 0.7 ng/dL. Elevated PSA levels can indicate the appearance of cancer; however, non-cancerous conditions can cause elevation of PSA such as (benign prostatic hypertrophy BPH), and infections. For men in their 40 – 50 with PSA score greater than 2.5 ng/dL; normal range 0.6 and 0.7ng/d; men in their 60s with PSA score greater than 4.0 ng/dL normal range 1.0 and 1.5ng/dL Abnormal PSA is considered abnormal is you PSA rises more than 0.35ng/dL in a year.
