Brief Answer: Regularly monitor hormones/electrolytes levels Detailed Answer: Hi, If this is your case, then, I suggest to regularly control the hormones levels in the blood and the blood electrolytes levels to prevent undesired side effects. Otherwise, the use of such supplements is safe. Dr.Sejdini
