What Are The Side Effects Of Forskolin?

Need to monitor Thyroid functions.
Detailed Answer:
Good day,
Noted your concern.
There are claims that Forskolin can promote weight loss safely. However it is unsure if they stimulate thyroid and Testosterone production.
Overstimulation of Thyroid may lead to toxicity and it may be worthwhile to check your thyroid functions whilst taking FORSKOLIN just to be on the safer side. Excess thyroid hormone can be harmful to bones and heart at your age.
Regarding the testosterone, it is used in females to improve libido and it may also help to maintain bone health. It is unsure how FORSKOLIN would improve the testosterone levels. In a postmenopausal lady, the only source of male hormone is Adrenal gland ( as the ovaries are atrophied). Hence the possible mechanism may be adrenal stimulation.
Hence, it is better that you monitor the Thyroid fuctions while taking this product.
Wish you good luck
