I don’t understand why PSA levels aren’t included as part of the standard blood work done with check ups.

My doctor tells me that PSA testing has now shown to not be effective so they don't do it anymore. I am 58 and my dad died of prostate cancer so I am concerned.

Sample size of 2 from my family but PSA tests led to biopsy and treatment with full recovery so far (knocks wood). It seems like low hanging fruit in the case where PSA levels spike.
