Can I take St. John's Wort 3 months breast augmentation post op?

Jellyace959259
I'm 3 months breast aug post op and I want to take St. John's Wort supplement for better sleep and less anxiety. However, this website does not recommend taking St. John's Wort for breast aug patients. Does this only apply to new patients? If my surgery was 3 months ago, can I take St. John's Wort? Would it hinder my healing at any chance?
