Proscar saw palmetto
Common Questions and Answers about Proscar saw palmetto
proscar
saw palmetto was tried in the late 90's for benign prostate enlargement, and the results were rather mixed. Then Proscar came along and pretty much ended that debate. Saw Palmetto has faded into the background - it's possible you affected your DHT levels, but it will definitely only be temporary. I quit Proscar for that reason, best not to fool around with sex hormone levels, in my opinion.
I have PCOS and am ttc. In my research I've come across Saw Palmetto and its possible benefits for women with PCOS. Has anyone used it with good results? Has it helped to manage symptoms of PCOS? Or with conception?
Hi there, i'm 19 years old and I took saw palmetto for about 5 days because it is known to increase sex drive and help with erectile function. After 5 days of use, it lowered sex drive and made my erectile dysfunction way worse. I just need to know if this is at all permanent. Has anyone else had experiences with this? I only took it for 5 days so im not as worried but I just dont know at this point. Any help is really appreciated.
Within the last 4 months I have noticed that when ejaculating during sex, my ejaculation is not as strong and barely comes out. I had no problems before this period with a strong ejaculation. There also seems to be less volume of fluid.( I am a 40 year old male and had a vasectomy 2 years ago.) Is this a sign of a prostate problem?
I would like to start taking 'saw palmetto' to help me ease my prostate problems but I am already taking warfarin & I understand it may clash. Just wondered, is it simply just not advisable to take saw palmetto whilst on warfarin because it is dangerous, or could I take it as long as I have my INR regularly checked?
The plant steroids in saw palmetto act on progesterone receptors, that causes a reduction in estrogen levels. According to the results of a large international trial published in the "Journal of Clinical Oncology" in April 2011, estrogen and progesterone receptor status is a predictive marker of early breast cancer and post-treatment relapse.
As you get older your hormone levels decrease, and your fat cells in your body increases.
Are you taking Flomax for prostate issues? Flomax works by relaxing the muscles in the bladder and prostate, which leads to improved flow of urine and fewer symptoms of BPH. It indeed can have side effects like you describe. https://www.healthline.com/health/enlarged-prostate/flomax-side-effects#side-effects It's a relatively low percentage of patients, less than 4% that have these types of side effects but none the less, that could be going on for you.
s only if I stop taking the vitamin Saw Palmetto daily, which I have not been doing in the past week or so mainly from being too lazy to restock on the vitamins. When I do take the Saw Palmetto however, I typically find myself going to the bathroom only about once or not at all each night.
So I was wondering if I should hold off on the Saw Palmetto during the week of withdrawal, only because urination is vital to detox and I figure the more trips to the bathroom the better?
It's possibly age related, but I'd also google Saw Palmetto to see if there is any indication that it affects erections. If no hint there, talk to your doctor.
I assume that your urine was not infected and that you were not taking any antibiotics. PSA results from different labs cannot be compared except in gross sense. There are definite differences. That being said, 4.24 is vastly different than 2.88 and has me concerned. Certainly PSA's can differ between days, also, but again this is quite a difference. I think that you should have your PSA repeated through your urologist in another 2 months and discuss the numbers with him/her.
The blood may be coming from your prostate gland. See a urologist to rule out cancer. If you don't have cancer then saw palmetto pills can help this problem.

Propose that your partner try Avodart. I think it really helps with prostate enlargement. That is what the television commercials say anyhow.
Unfortunately it also can cause a large reduction in semen production.
AND women wanting to become pregnant should NEVER touch the pill as it can cause birth defects if they are exposed at all to it.
You can Google Avodart read all of this yourself from a variety of sites, including Avodart's manufacturer.
I take organic pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, pygeum and stinging nettle root to help stop the conversion of testoserone to DHT. and slowly shrink the prostate. I would advise looking into that immediately so it doesn't continue to get enlarged at he very least.. Eat a lot of healthy fats (omegas) that the prostate like s too.. I ordered this "Thermobalancing" belt recently that is supposed to shrink the prostate in about 6 months...
At the suggestion a holistic specialist I began supplementing with Saw Palmetto (for approx. 1 week prior to my most recent injection,) and low doses or Progesterone cream to attempt to balance irregular hormones. After my laboratory results came back as normal, I discontinued the Saw Palmetto and continued with smaller doses of the Progesterone as a loading dose to coincide with the Progesterone injection.
Hi everyone! I'm looking for natural remedies like supplements and vitamins that are best for combatting it. I've heard saw palmetto and licorice helps, but I wanted to know what you ladies use personally and what works best. I have hirsutism, terrible acne and I am overweight. I also believe I am prediabetic, as my grandmother on my father's side had diabetes and my mother, so it runs in both sides of the family.
