> Thats odd that you say it gave you impotence. I heard the exact opposite (Better sex drive and a cure for impotence). How long were you taking it for and at what dose?I can't remember the dose, I took it for 2 months. I have read many things on the net about Saw Palmetto and impotence and this connection has been confirmed to me by two urologists. Anyway maybe my situation is different since I have prostatitis ...
check this out for example (I didn't read it, just type on Google 'impotence' and 'saw palmetto')
http://www.stevenfoster.com/education/monograph/sawpalmetto.htmlit says: "The saw palmetto product produced fewer complaints of decreased libido or impotence"
my understanding of this is that it CAN cause decreased libido and impotence
anyway, if you have read opposite things on saw palmetto, please post them ! I should have to take it again but I'm doubtful becuase of the impotence thing. Thanks !
