Question 5

does saw palmetto have any side effects?

Accepted Answer

Mild: Can upset your stomach; it's contraindicated in pregnancy. Forgive me, my question is why a 21 year old man is taking this stuff, which is at best a weak anti-androgen for old guys with bad prostates. If somebody's told you it's "good for your general well-being" -- bc, there is no such pill, in any system of medicine! ask your personal physician whether it's wise to continue.

Accepted Answer

Saw palmetto: is an unregulated supplement that has bio-identical properties, but is not standardized. If you are concerned about male pattern baldness, try using minoxidil and finasteride.  Side effects are uncommon but possible. Try them and monitor for side effects. You can stop if dissatisfied with results.  Claims that effects are long lasting seem dubious.
