what is pygeum used for
Today, pygeum is primarily used as a treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate enlargement.The evidence in support of this use is no more convincing than the evidence in support the more famous, natural BPH remedy, saw palmetto.cknowledging these limitations, pygeum may reduce symptoms, such as nighttime urination, urinary frequency, and residual urine volume. Besides BPH, pygeum is also sometimes proposed for prostatitis, as well as impotence and male infertility; 1,2 however, there is little real evidence that it works for these conditions.
