Are there other things that can cause my PSA to be above normal besides cancer?

Yes, absolutely there are things that can cause your PSA result to be higher than normal levels.

For every 100 men with a raised PSA level, 85 do not have prostate cancer.

Some of the common causes for elevated PSA include age, prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and urinary tract infections. Having a medical procedure, recent ejaculation, prostate stimulation or recent vigorous exercise can increase PSA levels.
