Wheatgrass and Relugolix, Estradiol, Norethindrone Acetate

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

CYTOCHROME P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) SUBSTRATES

Why this applies to Relugolix, Estradiol, Norethindrone Acetate

Relugolix, Estradiol, Norethindrone Acetate falls under CYTOCHROME P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) SUBSTRATES — the group Wheatgrass interacts with.

Theoretically, wheatgrass might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that wheatgrass induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Myfembree combines relugolix with estradiol and norethindrone to manage heavy periods from fibroids or endometriosis pain. The concern here is theoretical: lab studies hint that wheatgrass may speed up an enzyme called CYP1A2, and the estradiol part of this combo is partly handled by that pathway. If that effect held true in people, wheatgrass could nudge estrogen levels a little lower over time, which in theory might mean less reliable symptom control or some breakthrough bleeding.

Honestly, this is a weak signal that comes only from test-tube and animal work, so I wouldn't lose sleep over it, especially with food amounts of wheatgrass. Still, since this medication keeps your hormones in a careful balance, mention any wheatgrass supplements to your pharmacist or doctor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Relugolix, Estradiol, Norethindrone Acetate page

“Grapefruit is where I would start on this page. Myfembree (relugolix, estradiol, and norethindrone acetate) depends on the CYP3A4 enzyme to be cleared, and grapefruit juice blocks that enzyme, raising drug levels and side effect risk.”

About Wheatgrass

What is Wheatgrass?

Wheatgrass
  • General nutrition support
  • Digestive health
  • Antioxidant support
  • Energy and wellness
  • Arthritis symptoms
  • Detox or cleansing routines

Wheatgrass is the young grass of the wheat plant, taken as a juice or powder, and is mainly used as a concentrated source of vitamins and plant nutrients. Solid scientific evidence for most health claims is limited, and it is best viewed as a nutritional add-on rather than a treatment. It is generally well tolerated, but people with celiac disease, wheat allergy, or who are pregnant should be cautious and check with a healthcare provider.

About Relugolix, Estradiol, and Norethindrone

What Is Relugolix, Estradiol, and Norethindrone Used For?

Brand name: Myfembree

Myfembree is approved for two conditions in premenopausal women: managing heavy menstrual bleeding caused by uterine fibroids (non-cancerous growths in the uterus), and managing moderate to severe pain caused by endometriosis (a condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus).

Treatment with Myfembree should not exceed 24 months because of the risk of ongoing bone loss that may not fully reverse after stopping the medication.
