I'm dealing with a receding hairline and was advised to take Saw Palmetto with beta Sitosterol. I've heard that beta Sitosterol might cause sexual side effects, like loss of libido or erectile dysfunction. Is that true? And if it does cause these issues, will they go away once I stop taking the medication?

Beta sitosterol is a plant sterol that is commonly found in saw palmetto extract. While rare, some individuals may experience sexual side effects such as loss of libido or erectile dysfunction while taking beta sitosterol. If you are experiencing these side effects, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider. They may recommend adjusting the dosage or discontinuing the medication. In most cases, once the medication is stopped, the sexual problems should resolve.
