saw palmetto

[tylerbose]

i'v had problem with facial hair growth since puberty, i would say that i have 50% more facial hair than the average Joe, which is a problem for me.

after reading on internet i found out that it's probably caused by abnormal levels of DHT, which would also explain why i started balding at 17 and was nw4 at 25.

i know that saw palmetto will not grow my hair back, i lost hope about that a while ago.
i was wandering if it could help reduce my facial hair.

i know there are some guys who use/used it here and i would appreciate your input.

thank you.

I took 2 capsules of 160mg Saw Palmetto. My hair shed a lot for 2 days, and my left testicle + pubic region started aching after a few days, so I stopped. This is uncommon, but my own horrible experience with SP. And know that if you try it, you'll have to take it for the rest of your life like finesteride. From what I've seen on the internet, users didn't mention any regrowth but they said their hairfall reduced, and once they stopped taking SP they started to shed.

thanks for the input, not exactly what i was expecting, but valuable.
are there any natural product out there that can safely reduce DHT levels ?

Theoretically, there are a lot but there's not any proof they work. A few weeks ago, I was searching for natural remedies too, wasting hours of my time on the internet. Now I know most of it is Bullsh*t and not worth it, especially after my Saw Palmetto experience. My testes still hurt after 5 days but I also started topical finesteride 4 days ago, and hope it goes away
