What is a normal psa level after radiation?

After radiation therapy, a normal PSA level can vary depending on the specific treatment received and individual factors. In general, a PSA level of less than 4 ng/mL is considered normal for men who have undergone radiation therapy for prostate cancer.

It is important to note that PSA levels can fluctuate after radiation therapy, and some men may experience a temporary increase in PSA levels before they start to decrease. This is known as a PSA bounce and is a common occurrence after radiation treatment.

Monitoring PSA levels regularly after radiation therapy is important to track the effectiveness of treatment and detect any potential signs of cancer recurrence. It is recommended to work with a healthcare provider to determine the appropriate frequency of PSA testing and to interpret the results accurately.
