Well actual doctors I know don’t recommend it.

It has high false positives and high false negatives. So it has a high chance of needlessly worrying me/getting an unnecessary procedure done or worst than that giving me a false negative and I don’t worry about anything.

PSA score would be valuable if I had prostate cancer and wanted to see how treatment was going maybe.
