Can Intake Of Antibiotics Affect PSA Levels?

My husband recently has a PSA and it came back as a level 7. In the last year and half he has had 13 surgeries for hip replacement, infection and currently has no hip. We have been working for a year to get the hip would closed. He has been on IV antibiotics and is still on current antibiotics. Could this affect his PSA level?
