A member asked:
Does dgl licorice root decrease the effectiveness of loestrin 24 birth control?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Licorice: Licorice can decrease the effectiveness of oral contraceptives in general. Many have been studied, I do not know if loestrin has been evaluated. Generally, we tell patients that licorice can decrease the contraceptive effect of the pill. Licorice can also deplete your body of potassium, especially with chronic or heavy usage.
