By filling in this form, you will help your doctor to assess if you have an enlarged prostate, and how badly it is affecting you. An enlarged prostate is a common and benign (non-cancerous) condition that often occurs in older men. (The results do not help to diagnose prostate cancer.) Please answer the following questions about your urinary symptoms. Write your score for each question at the end of each row, add the total, and see below for a guideline to evaluation.

How do Prostasan Saw Palmetto capsules work?
Prostasan Saw Palmetto capsules contain oils called Free Fatty Acids. These help to reduce the levels of dihydrotestosterone.
How long does Prostasan take to work?
Most people will see a gradual improvement after four weeks but it is recommended that you try it for at least three months for maximum results.
Can you take Prostasan long term?
There is no time limit; it can be taken for as long as needed.
Why is Prostasan in a gelatine capsule?
The oil is extracted from the Saw Palmetto berry by a unique process. Keeping the oil in liquid form ensures a more potent and effective remedy. However, because the oil is in liquid form, a vegetarian capsule would not be suitable. Most companies that supply their Saw Palmetto in a vegetarian capsule have dried the oil to a powder in order to do so.
Why have you made it a 320mg capsule?
Various studies around the world on Saw Palmetto have found that the optimum benefit results from a dose of 320mg. Take less and it is not as effective but if you take more it will not work any faster.
Are there any side effects?
There are no known side effects. |
