They're lookin' good to me.
I remain wishy-washy on Saw Palmetto. I started out taking it, then from reading around here I get worried that it might prevent me from budding. I was taking as much Fenugreek as you, but also again, from reading, I worried it was too much, and have backed off to just under 2000mg/day. If I manage to bud, I'll look at upping my dose on the FG. I think I read it was something to do with FG having a progesterone-like effect (or synthesis?) at too high a dose. After I bud, then I'll try upping it back up to 3000-3600mg/day, assuming I haven't simply given in and gotten some Bi-Est cream (very likely I will do that, if logistics allow).
Do you think the Saw Palmetto has made a positive difference for you? My prostate misses me taking it, but I thought I'd read it has weak anti-estrogenic properties. Do you feel the DHT suppression outweighs any minor hits to estrogen production? I'm tempted to go back to it.
