Prostate cancer screenings can miss early disease in transgender women, a study in @JAMA_current finds. "PSA values in transgender women on estrogen should be interpreted with caution, as they are different than those in cisgender men," @FarnooshMD says. ucsfh.org/4eOgx4B

Our paper on #transgenderwomen shows those on #estrogen for > 6-mos have median #PSA values 50-fold lower than #cisgendermen. Median 0.02. Providers and patients need to be aware of this when screening for #ProstateCancer. @dr_coops @FarnooshMD @CedarsSinaiMed @JenAngerMD

Our new study on PSA values in transgender women: median PSA in those on estrogen w/o known prostate cancer was 0.02, 50x lower than cisgender men. Interpret PSAs in transgender women carefully

Two new treatment options for men with recurrent prostate #cancer have been identified by @CSCancerCenter investigators—both of which helped patients live longer without their disease progressing than the current standard treatment. @SFreedlandMD
