Shy,
So far that's a pretty good start. I'd advise you to be careful with the Saw Palmetto. Personally, it started making my thighs bigger so I had to stop taking it, but I've heard that varies from person to person. It may not effect you in that way at all. 2000mg is a really good amount to be taking. I was taking around that amount before I stopped and I saw some great results.
Fenugreek is definitely a must, as you've seen. 1500 mg is good for now, so your body can adjust to having it in it's system, but eventually you might need to ramp it up to between 3000-4000 mg a day if you want to get better results. I wouldn't advise doing that right away though.
I've also been massaging with fenugreek and fennel oils. I do it multiple times a day, whenever I get a chance, and always right before I go to sleep.
If you happen to start feeling lightheaded at any point, you might want to add a daily dose of iron to your regimen, because fenugreek can affect how your body absorbs iron. I also take 500mg of Vitamin C a day.
What other herbs are you planning on taking?
