I am interested in taking a supplement with Saw Palmetto in it and there are several. I also have BPH. I am 75 years old and pretty active. I am also on a blood thinner (Eliquis 5mg twice a day) because I have Factor V Leiden which is a clotting disorder which caused DVTs and Pulmonary Embolism. My research indicates that I should not take Saw Palmetto because it causes blood thinning. Maybe some doctor will read this and have an answer. If Saw Palmetto is a blood thinner why can't I take have the dosage of Eliquis along with Saw Palmetto and still have thin blood and hopefully help my BPH. I have tried Tamsulosin and that did nothing for me. Apparently that does not react with Eliquis. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
