Urotraxal questions
Q. Is saw palmetto as good as Uroxatral for prostate enlargement treatment?
   A. I have not seen any studies comparing the two in men who have BPH, but my guess would be that Uroxatral would be much more potent. However, saw palmetto, combined with other herbs and nutrients, may be helpful in some men with BPH.
