Warnings
Do Not Take With: Blood-thinning medications without consulting a healthcare provider, particularly when using supplements like Ginkgo Biloba and Omega-3 Fatty Acids, which can have blood-thinning effects.
Do Not Take If: You have a history of hormone-sensitive conditions such as certain types of breast cancer or uterine fibroids, especially when considering supplements like Black Cohosh, which may have estrogenic effects. It is also important to be cautious if you have liver conditions, as some herbal supplements can impact liver function.
If you are currently on hormone replacement therapy or other medications for menopausal symptoms, consult a healthcare provider, as some supplements may interact with these treatments. Additionally, if you have any chronic health conditions or are taking other prescription medications, it is essential to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure the safe use of these supplements. This Protocol should be used as part of a comprehensive approach to managing menopause symptoms, including a healthy diet, regular physical activity, stress management, and adequate sleep. Supplements should be viewed as one component of a holistic health plan.
