Does Saw Palmetto Cause Hair Shedding?

[darelg]

I have been taking a Saw Palmetto complex and other vitamins specific for hair & scalp health for roughly 3 1/2 weeks now and have actually noticed a slowdown in the amount of shedding. I remember before I started on the vitamins shedding was pretty bad. I would loose hair if I combed, washed or even ran my hands through my hair. I am talking upwards of 100+ hairs a day, it was bad. It has slowed down tremendously after nearly 4 weeks in but I am experiencing some mild side effects.

I am not sure if after a few months I will encounter a shed cycle but I am gonna give this regimen at least 6 months.

what side effects?
