Saw Palmetto is to block the effects of testosterone as much as possible, primarily by inhibiting the metabolism of T into DHT. It can help in feminizing a lot more since it reduces the effect that your male hormones will have on masculinizing characteristics.
As in real HRT, which I'm starting soon, in another month or two once I get to see my Endo. They commonly prescribe an estrogen (like Estradiol) to increase your free serum levels and an Anti-androgen (like Spiro) that will block free testosterone. So I guess the principle is the same, I have been using PM + SP as per robin's regime: http://breastnexus.com/showthread.php?tid=12724
