Can You Take Chrysin and Hops Together?
Dose or timing may matter
The short answer
Chrysin inhibits aromatase (reducing estrogen), while Hops contain potent phytoestrogens. These opposing actions may reduce the effectiveness of either supplement.
How to arrange timing
Consider using either an anti-estrogenic or estrogenic supplement, not both simultaneously.

Important context
Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
