Is Herbalife Safe To Use With Metformin And Clomid?

I have PCOS and I have been placed on metformin twice a day as well as birth control. I will be starting Clomid the end of July but I want to lose weight first. I purchased herbalife products and want to know if it is safe to do the herbalife diet with my medications. I do not want this to mess anything up and not be able to get pregnant.

usually the herbal medication do not interact with allopathic medications. you can take metformin for 6-9 months it will help in reducing weight. even 10-15% weight reduction helps in early conception. Clomet helps in ovulation. So you can continue all these medication with herbal pills, no harm
