has taking saw palmetto helped with your hair growth on scalp?
I don't think amino acids would hurt, but unless you have an amino acid deficiency, I don't think it would help, either. Hair loss (in the context of PCOS) occurs because of hormone imbalance, so the best thing to do is to keep your blood sugars down, which keeps your insulin levels down, which keeps your testosterone levels down, which keeps your DHT down. It all starts with blood sugar.

Are you taking cinnamon?


Saw Palmetto appears to be helping me to keep my hair, but I haven't noticed any regrowth. I think by the time I addressed my hair loss issue, the follicles had been dead for years, and are thus less likely to spring back to life. If your hair loss occured recently, you might have some regrowth, though.
