St johns wort/hrt?

Can st johns wort be used with HRT? Does it interfere near the HRT?
Answers:

I need sum opinion?


I take St John's Wort surrounded by a low dose and I am on HRT patches and this is okay. If you are taking St John's Wort for depression, it may be that your HRT dose wishes changing - possibly you need more progesterone? We aware that St John's Wort can be paid you photosensitive, so if you are prone to getting sunburnt, make sure you use a lofty factor suncream or total sun block while you are taking it.

Period craps or appendisitis?

St John's Wort has be shown to cause inefficacy to birth control pills but I doubt that it would directly effect HRT. You might check next to your pharmacist, but I think it should be fine, since HRT isn't a contraceptive.
