I'm having my 3-year post surgery PSA test done on Monday, I'm concerned because I didn't take any meds or even vitamins for the first 2 1/2 years but my doctor started me on Ritalin in May 2016, has anyone ever heard of Ritalin having any effect on PSA numbers?

I would think no prostate, no psa. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll should have no effect.

Doesn't seem to affect my PSA.

I've been on Adderall and Vyvance for ADHD years before my diagnosis (7/2013). There doesn't seem to be any relationship between psychositimulants and PSA. I've trying to find data on the topic and have found little to suggest a link.

Please excuse my typing in the previous post. I have the flu and wasn't wearing my glasses.
