Saw Palmetto Berries
Saw palmetto berry taken for urinary symptoms. People take it for:
- Taken for enlarged prostate symptoms (little benefit found)
- Taken for male pattern hair loss (limited evidence)
- Well tolerated in studies lasting up to 3 years
Why it works
People take it for urinary symptoms linked to an enlarged prostate and, less often, for hair loss. Large reviews found it gives little or no benefit for enlarged prostate symptoms when used alone, and the evidence for hair loss is too limited to judge. It has been well tolerated in studies lasting up to 3 years.
