Kirki, Please check with your Dr immediately. I had heard before that St Johns Wort interacts with contraception methods. I have googled and found a website www.contraceptiononline.org that advises that both Sweden & Britain have issued warnings regarding taking St Johns Wort while using contraception. Hope this helps.
