Hey lotus!!

I have excess estrogen and excess androgen with normal progesterone according to an online hormone test by john lee..
So do you think that taking saw palmetto along with fennel and fg can lower my estrogen and androgen level???if yes then how much mg should I take of sp in berry form(not extract)..

Hi priyanka,

FG and fennel are estrogenic, FG is high on protein, part of which helps build tissue. the Diosgenin in FG upregulates progesterone. Fennel is estrogenic, saw palmetto down regulates progesterone receptors.

I think you should look at evening primrose oil, it's 80% at anti-DHT, and you only need 1000 mg a day. I'd also consider coconut oil, (taken internally), which will also builds tissue (two tablespoons daily).

Add omega 3 for lowering the inflammatory levels our body it creates, it's possible to add fenugreek in a couple of weeks, and all you need there is 2 capsules, which is 1800 mg, there's no point in taking more FG.
