hi arvind .
it does help. but not in case of total baldness.
Is it helpful to control cholesterol? How to use the methi seeds? I heard that they have to be sprouted and dried in the sun and powdered. That powder is to be used in the butter milk or in water or in the salads.
you can just soqak them in water for 12 hours , then let them sprout and eat them fresh . just gulp them down with water. this helps. you can also use the way you mentioned . but fresh sprout will benefit more.

can methi seeds be consumed at the age of 50 for breast growth. For how long can it be taken.
Hi Sandra,
i doubt if at the age of 50 there is still any chance of growth . but yes, if you are still getting your cycles , your breast will become firm and will not sag . there is no harm in trying though. You can take it in the mentioned way for at least 2 months to see if it is helping in increasing the size.
