all three ingredients are recommended by Dino, I'm unsure of the dosages though, I'm pretty much following what's on the bottle of each. The nettle I'm taking is a saw palmetto with nettle mix, another reason I wanted to find out the opinions on dosages. These are not the only supps I'm using for PCT, but so far everything is working great.

Without any details of the the cycle or your stats....... 400mg daily of the I3C and SAMe should be OK and pretty cost effective. Not sure about the nettle product you are speaking of as I prefer ActivaTe by DS.

NOW Prostate Support has saw and nettle in it with some extras as well. I believe you get 250mg x 2 of the nettle in it. I have read you need in the neighborhood of 1000mg of nettle. (depending)
I have used DS ActivaTE for this purpose as well with success.

Couple of questions if I may?
I second Koos in asking what cycle you were on first though and how long?
What's the percentage of stabilizing molecule present in the SAMe ingredients label? don't know what I mean - I will offer up an example:
SAMe - 400mg ... ONLY 200mg is likely actual S-adenosylmethionine as the remainder comes from a stabilizer - [see PCT:ACV Parts II and III].
As for the nettle, dosing is better multiple times per day with most (i.e. - more frequent the better based on absorption levels, et al); cummulative dosing vs. actual amount per day.
As for the I3C, most bottles and suggested tallies are not written for the post-cycler as I am sure you can imagine. To suggest dosing here, I would likely consider it a minimum of twice per day at about 300mg for the average 200-pound bodybuilder. How long will depend on your cycle length, etc...

SAMe (S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine) 100mgs.
(from 200mg of S-Adenosyl-L-Methionine Disulfate Tosylate) by NOW
I3C 200mgs with 200mgs LinumLife (flax seed lignan extract) by NOW
saw palmetto 160mgs with 200mgs of nettle per cap.
I feel great so far on my PCT, I haven't weighed myself today, but strength and wait have remained the same. Still early. Since it's my first week of PCT I've been taking 2-3 I3C caps. One SAMe. 2-4 nettle/palmetto caps per day. With all my other stuff.
