First test with the saw palmetto, I haven't measured the exact formula as I mixed it before each application:
- 1 pump of hand sanitizer
- 4 pumps of basic moisturiser
- 1 drop of a pure vitamin E oil
- 10 drops of a pure saw palmetto extract
After having a shower I used a derma roller and then applied the cream and wrapped it in cling wrap and then slept with it on (it often slipped down my thigh as I slept which could explain the results)
I drew marks with permanent marker to try and get an accurate measurement before and after, I measured the mid thigh and upper thigh (half way between the middle and the pelvis) and applied the derma roller, cream, and cling wrap a couple inches above and below where I measured.
First day 30th March, last day 6th April (8 days of use) and measured on the 9th (didn't want to measure on a gym day so I waited):

March 30th
Treated : upper 73.5cm, middle 61.5cm
Untreated: upper 73.5cm, middle 62.5cm
April 9th
Treated: upper 73cm, middle 64.0cm
Untreated: upper 73.5cm, lower 62.0cm
(Rounded to the nearest 0.5cm)

So it does look like there was some difference and I wonder if because it kept sliding down my thigh is the reason only the middle seemed to grow. Of course it could all be measurement error at such a small difference and I can't see or feel any difference (which could be because it's so subtle). I realise my methodology is a bit poor so I wanted to try again testing on my other leg but using a treatment on both (one without the saw palmetto) to make sure it isn't just inflammation from the skin being irritated (as it did always sting a little after applying).
