A member asked:
I just started taking orsythia birth control pills. i wanted to try taking garcinia cambogia along with diet and exercise. will this affect my bc?

Unknown: Since Garcinia is a dietary supplement, it has not been studied and reviewed in the same way as a drug would be. As a result there is incomplete understanding of it's interactions and metabolism. If you are sexually active and you do not want to get pregnant, then it is best to avoid it.
