NHS to review advice on testing for prostate cancer in light of Sir Chris Hoy 's call for younger men to be checked.
PSA tests are not routinely offered to men under 50 without symptoms but who may be at risk.
NHS guidelines for England say anyone can request a PSA test if they are over the age of 50 .
Prostate Cancer UK backs the call, saying doing more checks could save thousands of lives.
