Answer is NO.
As you can see from my answers there is undue emphasis due to cognitive distortions caused by OCD which leads to extreme fear without any rational cause. The cognitive distortions needs to be corrected with use of either medications or CBT.
I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.


You do not need any test for this purpose

Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.
You do not need any form of test to rule out brain cancer/prostate cancer due to overthinking and its deleterious effects.
You are no more at risk for brain cancer/prostate cancer due to OCD as all of us are equal risk whether the subjects suffers with OCD or not.
I hope this answers you.

I am sorry to say that for prescription you need to visit a psychiatrist in person. My medical council does not allow me to prescribe medicine remotely without physical examination of patient.
I hope this clarifies the situation.
