1st.. If you found a fenugreek source that your body is responding to, I highly suggest you stick with it versus going to another vendor.
2nd. A 4:1 extract of fenugreek in theory would be equivalent if the extraction process was pulling out all the compounds or at least the one your body was responding too.
The one product you mentioned is not a standardized extract and is a simple 4:1, by that I mean it isn't tested for any 1 or 2 compounds or class of compounds at say a certain %. As you are finding biologically, it isn't neceassarily the same thing as simply as taking fewer capsules due to an extraction.
For all you know, the substance that was causing potential growth pains was "extracted out" of the final extract opowder and now that source of super FG is useless for what you are hoping to do...
Hope that answers your questions.
