[|AI|]  Dear Mr. Deepak, You need not worry about the simple cyst in prostate unless it is causing symptoms like painful voiding or difficulty in passing urine. Single small cyst in prostate does not usually cause any harm. However, PSA of 7 NG/ml is high. Please get a repeat PSA done, since the last value was one year old. The free PSA of 15.6 seems to be wrong. It could have been 1.56 NG/ml (free PSA is a part of total PSA, and it cannot be higher than total PSA). Please make sure that you do not ejaculate within 48 hours prior to PSA testing and get a urine microscopy test done to rule out urinary tract infection (since urinary tract infection can falsely increase PSA). If the repeat PSA is more than 2.5 to 4 NG/ml (and free PSA/total PSA ratio is I hope I have answered your query. Please feel free to get back to me after the PSA result. Wish you a healthy life! Warm regards,
