I just bought some wild yam and will be taking that as well. I also want to add saw palmetto or fennel but not sure what one will help the most. Or should I return the wild yam (haven't opened it yet and get fennel and SP. I have a low libido that's why I originally got the WY but I've also heard that fennel helps with that too. Help is appreciated thanks
Fennel is considered al galactagogue ( increases milk supply). Saw palmetto is anti-androgen and can reduce sex drive.
Wild yam should be micronised. The body cannot convert it into diogesin (sp?) Naturally.
If you are taking wild yam for progesterone, consider taking vitex (chaste berry) or tumeric, both are supposed to increase progesterone...if you decide tumeric, i suggest taking it in capsule form.
So should I not take SP if I already have low sex drive. And don't take wild yam?
