Shyboob is taking BO, DIM and BCP and she is doing fine. Maybe you could pop in and take a look at her program
SuperBoob.
Happy growing!

I'm taking the lowest dose of BCP and DIM. I didn't have any thought that it would mess up BCP. I'm also doing extended dosing because of migraine issues. But from what I understand is DIM helps to get rid of the excess and bad estrogen and keep the good. Not get rid of it overall.
Also my boyfriend/fiance and I don't even use condoms at all. (bad I know XP)
But no pregnancies or even pregnancy scares for the past 3+ months that I've been taking it. So all good.

To err on the side of caution I do want to add to this that the DIM bottles do say it can cause BCP to to be less potent for some women

I am so sorry for the typing mistake I made earlier. I was actually referring to Super Boob not shyboob. Sorry for the confusion!

I guess I'm one of the women that it doesn't affect? At least the one I'm taking doesn't say it affects BCP. I don't know, it could also be the type of BCP you take as well?
Like when I was on PM many people said that PM can affect BCP, but it really varied based on which BCP one was using.

Super Boob I remembered you mention you have period once every 3 months. Will that be the case I wonder...

That's another possibility I suppose.
