Cancer Prevention Weeks of the Health Department: Free PPE measurement on September 16, 2025 for men aged 45 and over

As part of the Cancer Prevention Weeks, the Health Department of the Ludwigsburg District Office is offering a free PSA measurement for men aged 45 and over in collaboration with a laboratory in Ludwigsburg. The examination will take place on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, from 3 to 7 p.m. in the health department, Hindenburgstraße 20/1, 71638 Ludwigsburg.

The PSA test (prostate-specific antigen) is an important blood test for the early detection of prostate cancer, the most common cancer in men in Germany. Early diagnosis is crucial for successful treatment. Normally, the test must be paid for as an IGeL service.

The organizers cordially invite all men aged 45 and over to take advantage of this free offer to actively contribute to their own health and prevent cancer at an early stage.

The PSA measurement, in which blood is taken from a vein, is an uncomplicated examination that provides valuable information about changes in the prostate. If the values are abnormal, further clarification by a urology specialist is recommended. The campaign takes place in cooperation with MVZ Labor Ludwigsburg.
