A member asked:
Is it actually true that doing a colon and liver cleanse will reduce the effectiveness of the birth control pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Any time that you take medications that affect your liver it can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills. Most cleanses are not tested like pharmaceuticals are tested so no info available.
