Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for reaching out to our community.

According to the website, Doctors Health Press, saw palmetto can "reduce inflammation of the bladder and soothing painful urination associated with bladder disorders, block the overproduction of testosterone in the female body, which will alleviate unwanted hair, treat acne, treat menopausal symptoms, and may help reduce the symptoms of PCOS.

Regards,
Maryann
