I’ve only seen a couple people on here use it

maybe 6 people said it worked and 3 people said it didn’t and it seemed like it made things worse(but that could be like the finasteride shed?)

also does it inhibit 5ar 1 or 2 or both?

this is my first time posting here I’m new here

btw fenugreek is known to raise t from blocking 5ar. Obviously won’t block it as much as finesteride though

Fenugreek industry lied about side effects

I have it... I mix it with my seeds I put on salads, soups.
Good herb, but not strong enough by itself..

I took Fenugreek capsules daily for 14 days. My libido went through the roof. Not a particularly positive effect for someone with Androgenetic Alopecia.

Fenugreek seeds are something you normally wouldn’t ever take. The seeds are very hard, don’t taste good, not well known. But bodybuilders testimonials convinced me to try.
I feel they are a plus to a man’s health, but in future I would only buy seeds pre-ground to a powder.
As far as growing hair, nothing significant.
They raise testosterone. Maybe body hair.
Scientifically known as Trigonella foenum-graecum, fenugreek is a popular herb that has traditionally been used to help increase libido and alleviate blood sugar metabolism problems, which suggests that it may possess anti-diabetic properties.

While the herb still requires further research, early studies suggest that fenugreek may help to increase testosterone by inhibiting 5-alpha reductase, which comes with the added benefit of reducing DHT levels. The most well-known compound in fenugreek is 4-hydroxyisoleucine, which has been shown to help normalize the metabolism of glucose.

So taking it seems a win/win..
Regrowing hair on head is another thing.
