lower it or make it higher? Also, what would you consider a normal level while on Propecia? -- H.K., Long Island City, N.Y. A: Finasteride 1mg a day lowers your PSA around 50%. Therefore, when patients are taking finasteride, the PSA reading should be doubled. Finasteride does not appear to decrease the sensitivity of the PSA test to detect prostate cancer - its main purpose. PSA levels vary by age and by lab so I would check with your internist/urologist to evaluate your specific level. In very general terms, for adults, it is ideal to have a PSA
