A PSA level over 100 ng/mL is considered highly elevated and often indicates a serious underlying condition, most commonly advanced prostate cancer. PSA (prostate-specific antigen) is a protein produced by the prostate, and its levels in the blood can rise for various reasons, including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostatitis, or urinary tract infections. However, PSA levels over 100 are typically associated with more advanced stages of prostate cancer, suggesting that the cancer may have spread beyond the prostate. Diagnostic steps, such as a prostate biopsy, MRI, and bone scans, are crucial to confirm cancer and assess its extent. Treatment options depend on the stage of cancer and may include hormone therapy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or even surgery. The prognosis for patients with such highs psa levels over 100 varies, but the cancer is often harder to treat in advanced stages. Regular monitoring and early intervention remain key to managing the disease effectively.
