Diagnosed March 2018 (Gleason 7), prostatectomy July 2018. PSA rose to 0.1 by September 2020 which triggered salvage radiation and 6 months ADT. This year PSA began a slow rise from <0.01 to 0.02 to 0.04 and now is 0.06. Wondering if this is worrisome? Also, I changed my atorvastatin dose from 20mg to 10mg. I’m a moderate consumer of alcohol as well. Could either of these contributed to the rise?

Suggest changing to a regular PSA test (lowest value 0.1) because you wouldn't do anything until it reaches about 2.0 anyway.
Drugs have no influence.
