community "Nah bro, I don't need finasteride! I'll just use saw palmetto and rosemary oil!"

community (Topic) does saw palmetto actually work?
Saw palmetto can help reduce DHT levels and may work in combination with other supplements like beta sitosterol and pygume, but it's less effective than finasteride. Additional treatments like pumpkin seed extract, zinc, biotin, essential oils, scalp massages, and micro-needling can support hair health, but should not replace existing treatments like finasteride.
