Had splenectomy 5 years ago can i use creatine monohydrate is it safe? hv been going to gym from last 10 months if no is it because of splenenectomy?

Yes you can: but whether it will work or not is another matter. Creatine is not metabolized by the spleen. Do be sure that you get adequately immunized with pneumococcal vaccines due to reduced resistance to this type of infection.
