A PSA of 1.5 is very good. PSA is a measure of risk of prostate cancer (note: it's not the only indicator to look at; you should have your prostate checked regularly if you're over 50, even 40 to be safe). The higher the PSA, the higher the risk of prostate cancer. It's generally accepted that 4.0 and below is ok, above that and you should definitely have it checked out. Anything below 2.0 very good.
