It seems like, if there's any difference at all, the extract might actually be more effective than the pills, especially if it's standardized. I don't see any reason why she shouldn't use extracts only. If you go that route, maybe you could try switching out the RC with hops after a few months, and then switching back when you hit another stall. In the past, people who used RC for months on end typically hit a brick wall after a while. Maybe alternating between the two will help you avoid that. My theory is that RC sometimes raises progesterone too much over time, unless you take breaks, but as always, I might be totally wrong.
