Hiya,
I'm not sure where to put this, so forgive me if it is in the wrong section. I just wondered, does taking Damiana affect taking contraceptive pills?
Thank you
RE: Damiana and contraceptive pills, is it ok?
Hi Crystalplane,
I have 2 links that might be useful:

There is not much research availible on the product, but perhaps if you e-mail the manufacturer or one the supplier on the second page they might be able to answer your question.
Generally herbal medicines should not affect the working of contraception pills, mostly it is pharmacuitical drugs that affect the workings ofthe contraception pill.
I hope this helps a little. Good luck, I hope you have your question answered by one of the suppliers or they could point you into the right direction.
