I Am Considering Using St. John's Wort For Mild Depression.

I am considering using St. John's Wort for mild depression. I have used it before with good results. I remember a doctor telling me to get off it for a few weeks before having a surgical procedure. Can't remember why and can't find the answer on the internet. Is it possible bleeding/ blood thinning? I'd like to know what that need to avoid the St. John's Wort before a procedure. Thanks, Lynn
