I noticed that zi cao is contraindicated in pregnancy, but I'd never seen any good sources beyond an extremely dated 1964 study that reported 82.4% efficacy when using zi cao orally as a female contraceptive. I always wondered whether recent research supported those initial findings. Eric Alan Get easy, one-click access to your favorites. Make your homepage.
