Q1. How long until noticeable benefit?
A: Users often report symptomatic relief after 4–12 weeks, aligning with study durations

Q2. Can Proseren® replace prescription BPH medications?
A: No—while modest improvements are seen, it is not a substitute for alpha-blockers or 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors in moderate/severe BPH.

Q3. Can women take it?
A: No—due to hormone interaction effects and lack of safety data.

Q4. Should I continue PSA testing?
A: Yes—discuss with your doctor as saw palmetto may lower PSA levels, potentially masking prostate issues

Q5. Can I take with Blackmores Conceive Well Gold?
A: Yes—no ingredient overlap, but Proseren® is only indicated for men’s prostate health.
