Why saw palmetto and not fin?
Hi
I am curious about this: I have read several times that on this forum a DHT inhibitor such as saw palmetto is recommended for the younger people. But doesn't saw palmetto do the exact same thing as fin?

Saw palmetto is less powerfull than fin, so there is safer to take if we doesn't want to have sides effects.

No, they don't do the same thing. Saw Palmetto doesn't affect serum DHT levels. Some hypothesize that it affects the androgen receptors, but nobody is sure to my knowledge. Finasteride affects a number of neurosteroids, and not just DHT, because the 5ar-2 enzyme is responsible for hormonal conversions other than just T->DHT.
But this has been covered to death on the traditional hairloss sites, and I've mentioned this before on here. The search function with the google option can usually give you what you're looking for.
