Two years ago I was diagnosed with PC and in June 2024 I had my prostate removed. Since then my PSA has crept up from 0.02 to 0.16 with every result being an increase. Two months ago a small dot on my cheek started to grow and has now become a 7mm mole with black spots on the side. The mole has moments when it itches. Today, I saw my doctor and she immediately put me on an urgent skin cancer review.
My doctor told me there is a link as both have been linked to Androgens (male hormones) as a cause. I don't know how strongly this has been proven, but I am shocked and a little angry that no health professionals had warned me about this link and that I needed to be vigilant.
It is possible this isn't skin cancer and I certainly hope not. I will update this thread with news.
