I've been taking 2 capsules (overall 520 mg) of St. Jonh's Wort for 5 days. Each capsule contains 0.7 mg of hypiricin and hyperforin not over 4.9 mg. How long does it take to work?

It needs to build up in your blood. So it might take a few weeks. If it's been a month and nothing's happening talk to your doctor. For now just give it some time.

My doctor doesn't know I'm taking it and I doubt she'd happy to know I'm taking it: doctors usually think herbal remedies are ineffective. Do you know if it can be taken with L-tryptophan?

I've been talking SJW since the 21st of February, although I forgot to take it a couple of times. I saw no improvement. Actually, this week I've had strong suicidal thoughts (I think I have pmdd too) and cut myself
