Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
PSA has always been under 2. In September of last year had physical and PSA was at 2.4. Approximately 1 month later had an incredibly severe UTI/prostate infection. So severe had to be admitted to hospital overnight. Given bactrim for 1 month. Had PSA test following infection and was at 6.4. Retested in February and PSA was at 5.06. Urologist said elevated PSA was probably due to infection, and will retest in a couple of weeks after another treatment with Bactrim. Could he be right or should I be worried?
