Interactions & contraindications

Clover (Red Clover)

Full profile
  • Pre-surgery — discontinue at least 2 weeks prior (potential antiplatelet effect)
  • Hormone-sensitive conditions (breast/ovarian cancer, endometriosis) — phytoestrogenic activity possible

Pregnancy

Avoid

Red clover is a significant source of phytoestrogens (isoflavones) and has mild blood-thinning activity — generally avoided in pregnancy, particularly given the unstudied effects of concentrated phytoestrogen exposure on fetal development.

Breastfeeding

Use Caution

Phytoestrogen content means it's generally used cautiously; some herbalists use small amounts for milk supply but it's not a first-choice herb.

Children

Avoid

As a phytoestrogen-rich herb, red clover is not used in children.

Hormone therapies, blood thinners

Phytoestrogenic activity and mild anticoagulant compounds.
