Prostate cancer risk assessment: common questions
Frequently asked questions
What does it ask about?
Prostate cancer in your father, brother or son; breast, ovarian and other related cancers in the family; BRCA and other gene results; enlarged prostate or prostatitis; work around mining or metal dust; diet; and past PSA tests and rectal exams.
What is the IPSS?
A 7-question score of urinary symptoms such as weak flow and waking at night. A higher score suggests a clinic visit is worth arranging; most urinary symptoms come from an enlarged prostate, not cancer.
When will it recommend a PSA test?
From 55 to 69 after an informed discussion, or from 40 with family history or inherited risk, repeating about every 2 years after a normal result.
What does it cost?
KES 300 covers all five cancer risk assessments. Assessment and package fees do not include tests, scans or consultations at the facility, which you pay there by cash, card, mobile money or insurance.
