Prostate cancer screening: Should you get a PSA test? And a normal PSA test, combined with a digital rectal exam, can help reassure you that it's unlikely you have prostate cancer. But getting a PSA test for prostate cancer may not be necessary for some men, especially men 70 and older. Professional organizations vary in their recommendations about who should — and who shouldn't — get a PSA screening test. While some have definitive guidelines, others leave the decision up to men and their doctors.

The doctor or nurse inserts a lubricated, gloved finger into your rectum to feel the prostate for lumps or anything unusual.
