Can I take either Aguaje or Maca with a pueraria mirifica butt cream while having the nexplanon birth control implant?

jcvb11
Hello, i had a baby a year ago and lost all my curves and cannot afford a butt lift so I wanted to know if I could take either maca or aguaje internally and then use a pueraria mirifica cream with emu oil and other essential oils (all for penetration in the skin) topically on my butt/hips while on nexplanon. Some say my blog clot risk would increase but I read that protein based enzymes like bromelain or nattokinase can prevent clots, so can I take one of them too while I'm taking the other things?
