The PSA test is indicated for:

  1. Women over 50

  2. Men under 50

  3. Men over 50

  4. All adults over 40

The correct answer is: Men over 50

PSA test is a common screening test for prostate cancer, which is most common in men over the age of 50. Therefore, this test is indicated for men over 50. Women do not have a prostate gland, so they do not need to undergo this test. Men under 50 are not at high risk for prostate cancer, so this test is not recommended for them. While all adults over 40 should consider getting regular checkups, the PSA test specifically screens for prostate cancer, which is not typically an issue for adults under 50.
