Hello Everyone. 

I'm fairly new to BO, but am a bit confused. I've read through quite a number of threads here and have found that quite a few members have had major success with BO while on BCP, but on the same note advise against taking BO with PM or other herbs containing estrogen/progestin. My confusion is why is it okay to take BO with BCP (mainly estrogen or progestin or a combination of them both), but it's not okay to take BO with PM, Fenugreek, Fennel, or other herbs containing estrogen/progestin? Especially if you're not taking or  prefer to not take BCP. What are your thoughts on this?

If there is a thread about this, can someone please be so kind to link it?

Thanks in advance.
Bump.

Hi there!


I’d have to dig up a thread on the specifics that explain but basically you don’t mix BO with those because they are herbs and they contain phytoestrogens, not actual estrogen. They’ll essentially cancel each other out and you won’t get any positive results. On top of that you’ll likely throw your hormones out of whack. BO works with BC because they both contain hormones.
