Bioperine?? Not sure if this is what you are taking, but have a gander below. This is from "Living Strong .com"

Potential Side Effects

Although piperine is generally considered safe, important questions regarding its side effects and interactions remain to be answered. According to the "Journal of Food Safety," piperine is generally safe to consume as it does not cause any major alterations in blood tests. One potential adverse effect of piperine is that it may enhance the absorption of medical drugs, bringing them to dangerous levels in the blood stream. For this reason, the supplement should not be administered at the same time as any medications. Piperine may inhibit liver metabolism of drugs as well, which may also raise drug levels. Some animal tests with piperine suggest that it may have reproductive toxicity. Again, when starting any new treatments, consult your doctor first.


If this does interfere with the liver, what else is it messing with?? It maybe could cause it to totally negate any exo-estrogen you are pumping into your body???? Just a thought.

I was reading that it would enhance the absorbsion of the herbs/glandulars, but if it's causing it to cancel out the wanted effects I'll toss that out as well. Hopefully that's the cause of my lack of growth and I can get back on track. I messed up a whole months worth of potential work.
