The ingredients were grapefruit seed extract and guggul. Can you please let me know if I m risking the effectiveness of levlen ed by taking this thermogenic ?

Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

Please do not worry.

Recent data on use of oral contraceptive pills suggests that there is very minimal risk of weight gain even after long term use of low dose oral contraceptive pills.

I will suggest you to opt healthy lifestyle changes for fat reduction.

Please opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen.
Include more portions of fruits and vegetables and salads in daily diet.
Drink plenty of water in the day.
Avoid refined sugars and deep fried foods and bakery products in the diet.
Please take Iron, Calcium, protein and vitamin B 12 and Folic acid supplementation on regular basis.

Please consult with a person who has advised you about use of OxyShred compound, regarding simultaneous use of oral contraceptive pills with it.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
