Saw Palmetto for hair regeneration?!?!

    I started taking Saw Pametto a couple of months ago, a herbal supliment, as some one advised me that it can help to stop hair loss and let you keep the hair you have.

    Now, either I'm going a bit nutz, or it's wishful thinking, but recently I've noticed my hair becoming a bit 'thicker' and possibly growing back in areas where it's thin.

    As I said, the change is very small and I'd probably be the only person to notice it.

    Has anyone ever experienced this effect with Saw Palmetto?

    Well, with over 1500 posts it seems a bit unlikely...

    It would appear that initial clinical trials have shown it to have an effect against balding:
