My sister has just started to use saw palmetto for PCOS and she can not tell you does it really work yet. But she is pretty sure that it will help her because she read a lot about this herb. Women with PCOS tend to have higher levels of testosterone and DHT than other women and saw palmetto appears to reduce DHT.
