A member asked:
Can you consume horse tail while on birthcontrol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Horsetail tea: There is no documented interaction between the herb horsetail and OCPs, BUT given the list of possible side effects and the lack of long-term safety studies I urge caution. As it is an herbal, there is no guarantee on it's purity or effective concentration. There are reports of horsetail products being contaminated with similar herbs with known toxicity - again I urge caution.
