Hi all! So I have a Dr appt on Monday to see if I have PCOS, I have pretty much every symptom there is, including tiny odd shaped breasts. I just started taking Saw Palmetto to improve my thinning hair and for breast enlargement.
Anyways! My question is have any ladies had any positive results with SP? Is there anything else I can be taking to help my breasts grow?

You may not want saw palmetto by itself. While it lowers DHT, which would be good for PCOS, it also lowers estrogen. The worst part of it is that Saw Palmetto raises LH, which would be very bad for PCOS.
A rise in LH, is what causes the ovaries to produce androgens, while at the same time, Saw Palmetto will not promote them to produce estrogen, and I imagine that puts a strain on the ovaries.
