Article Synopsis
  • High-dose testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) combined with finasteride offers benefits such as improved body composition, muscle strength, and bone density in older men, while mitigating the risk of prostate enlargement.
  • A pilot study involved 12 men with spinal cord injuries, demonstrating that TRT with finasteride significantly increased lean body mass and muscle size, alongside enhancing bone mineral density compared to a placebo.
  • Results suggest TRT + finasteride reduced fat mass and improved muscular strength, with measurable benefits observed as early as 6 months into the treatment, indicating its potential effectiveness for men with low testosterone post-injury.
