After re-reading the previous posts and trying to absorb it all, I can’t help wondering if there may be other benefits associated with PM that haven’t been discussed much. For example, AP mentioned medical advice that questioned whether Proscar (finasteride) is any better than SP for BPH. I have had two urologists and one internal medicine physician tell me that herbs and supplements don’t help for BPH. However, I always get the feeling that the medical community as a whole doesn’t really educate themselves regarding the uses of herbal remedies. As you know, in some males, Proscar has the side effects of breast development, softer skin and less body hair. I am one of those males who has benefitted from these side effects. That brings me to the question of the other potential added benefits of PM. If I don’t have serious side effect such as headaches, anxiety etc. etc. then I wonder if I could increase the PM dosage and get rid of the finasteride & tamulosin. If that were to be the case, then I might be able to attain additional breast enlargement and get rid of some unnecessary prescription pharmaceuticals at the same time. I’m bracing myself for the answer
