Over a period of two years, 38% of those taking saw palmetto saw increased hair growth, compared with 68% of those using finasteride.There is no recommended dosage for taking saw palmetto for hair loss. A variable to hair loss is excess DHT (a testosterone metabolite) in hair tissue. It has been speculated that saw palmetto inhibits the enzyme 5 alpha reductase that converts testosterone into DHT in prostate tissue, but studies have not been done to prove a similar effect would occur in hair tissue. Studies conducted on standardized saw palmetto for enlarged prostate treatment in men used dosages of either 160 mg twice daily or 320 mg once daily.
