    According to my urologist it’s not conclusive because your PSA value will also be above norm if you have a naturally large prostate.

    To get a reliable diagnosis you need to measure the prostate volume by ultrasound and guess where that probe goes.

      That’s ok. Blood test first (least invasive) then move on to ultrasound. The point is there’s no good reason to have someone digitally probe your anus anymore.
