Regular Member mcriot29 Posted May 14, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted May 14, 2011 ok so i took fin for 3 months last year good results but had to stop due to pain in knee joints and bad clicking in diffrent joints once i stopped it all got better after 6 weeks or so also i kept pulling muscles on it something i have never done before. so this year i started again and 4 months in joints are clicking again and have pulled muscles twice while on it which proves in my case it effects mu joints anyone else have this happen esp knees very sore and clicking have to say its really good for my hair and do not want to stop using it :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gasto Posted May 15, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted May 15, 2011 I haven't experienced that. It sounds like something that could get worse with time. Check with your doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member RCWest Posted May 15, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted May 15, 2011 I don't see how Finasteride and clicking joints could possibly be related. Have you tried a MSM/Glucosamine/Chondroitin supplement? Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?

Regular Member Trichologist Posted May 24, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted May 24, 2011 That could be any one of a number of different issues, but it doesn't seem likely that joint issues would be connected to the medication. I'd consult your doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member lex222 Posted May 25, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2011 yes these drugs lower dht...dht directly associated to testosterone ...testosterone directly affects bone,muscle,and connective tissue. Can cause muscle weakness,connective tissue issues amoung other issues. just lucky if not you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member mcriot29 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 10, 2012 Hey yes when i stop the fin the clicking goes away after a month or so, also joint pains, i have now started topical fin around 2 months now, but it also gives me joint pain and clicking ,esp knees and elbows there no doubt now the fin is thecause .i have read low test levels can cause weak joints , i feel fin by lowering dht is some how effecting my test levels , it shows me dht levels effect my joints maybe im a one off in regards to this lots take fin and have nO sides .
