[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, PSA level below 4 NG/ml is a normal value. Values between 4-10 NG/ml are seen in benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic infarct and trauma to prostate like in cases of needle biopsy, instrumentation, etc. The PSA levels in your cases are fluctuating, however, none of the value is alarming. I suggest you to consult a urologist for clinical assessment of prostate gland by digital examination. If required an ultrasound of the gland can also be done. Along with ultrasound, PSA density and PSA velocity should also be performed. These tests represent the status of prostatic functions more accurately than PSA alone. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
