My birthday prezzie from my GP earlier this year was a finger where the sun doesn't shine. I then had the blood test. Whilst the PSA level was normal, apparently, it can now be used as a benchmark when I have the next test further down the line.

The PSA level is a not very reliable indicator. Sometimes right sometimes just wrong, but it's the only none invasive test they have. Mine went up, triggered concerns, and now it's just back to acceptable.
My current customer, he went for a PSA test. He was about 7. He was invited to be part of a clinical trial to see if MRI scans are more reliable than the traditional method of biopsies. The MRI showed that he had early stage prostate cancer. Because it was detected early, his treatment was not too invasive. An upside is that he is now happy to spend his hard earned money to enjoy life whilst he can.
Thanks for the heads up though. It is something that I have only considered this year.
Just what you want - microswitches and cables bodged onto a seat. Real elegance...wire it up to the toilet seat so when it's up it disables the fan
Sit down jobs extract as normal ..
Plus these days, if I get up in the night, I sit down rather than try and maintain balance whilst half asleep.
I know that they take longer, purely because of the disrobing.

I do the same because it is less noisy.
From memory, my PSA was at 12, I wasn't invited on any special trial just given an urgent appointment for an MRI, That was followed by the questionnaire and a digital exam, in the hospital specialist section, and a declaration that there was no problem. Since when, my PSA dropped to what they consider safe values.

I haven't timed it but I'm sure that the time required to pee standing up, and then wipe down all the surfaces that fine droplets of pee have spread all over, is actually longer than just sitting to pee regardless of sex at birth
