Hello. : Hello. There aren't good studies on this. Some of the slim quick products contain chaste tree. Chaste tea may increase increase menstrual flow. Chaste tree can also interact with birth control drugs and fertility drugs. I would take a look at the long list of possible side effects that a person could experience with many of the compounds that are in slim quick, before i would use it. It is eye opening.

Several points.: There is almost zero regulation on dietary supplements and no study has found supplements to have what they are supposed to have even 50% of the time. HOWEVER, I doubt it has chemotherapy agents in it. Except for chemotherapy or other plain toxic agents, very very little of anything has fertility effects after it is gone and very few things stay around longer than a day.
