À propos de ce contenu audio

We are told the PSA test is a simple lifesaver. But for 12 out of 13 men, it can lead to a "trap" of unnecessary biopsies, anxiety, and permanent side effects.

In this episode, Dr. Michal Chovanec reveals the hidden risks of prostate cancer screening that most doctors don't have time to explain. You will learn why a "high number" doesn't always mean cancer, and the exact protocol to follow to protect yourself from overtreatment.

Topics covered:

  • The Trade-Off: Why saving 1 life often means harming 12 others.

  • The "48-Hour Rule": How cycling or even sex can give you a false cancer scare.

  • The New Standard: Why you should demand an MRI before a biopsy.

  • Reading the Results: Understanding PSA Velocity (Speed) and Density.
