Serum PSA was an accurate marker for prostate size. Before reaching a conclusion on the use of combination therapy for BPH, one other piece of evidence should be presented.

Finasteride 5 mg/day (Proscar) is used to treat BPH, and current guidelines for patients taking the drug recommend a prostate biopsy if the PSA level is elevated by 0.3 ng/mL in one year, he added.
