I am currently taking a combination birth control and spironolactone for acne. i recently wanted to include fenugreek and maca root supplements since i have noticed it has helped me gain weight. should i be taking them all together? is it safe?

In my opinion hsupplements claim more than they deliver and are unregulated as to claims, content, effectiveness and purity. So I do not recommend them. Re weight pl see your doc. Good luck
