Evening Primrose Oil Help


Hello ladies!

I have just bought some EPO 1000mg from Tesco "every little helps" and all that!

I have low progesterone levels and i thought mayby taking some EPO will help maintain a healthy hormone level...

So i was wondering from women who take EPO, does it help, does it work quick, and is there any point in starting to take it in the 2WW??

Thanks ladies, to you all xxxxx

EPO won't help with progesterone honey, just helps produce CM
Agnus Castus, Licorice Tea and Vit B6 can be known to help some people...

Oh I don't know, sorry. I don't take Evening Primrose Oil. I'm sure there are ladies here who can answer your question.

Yes, only take up to OV, then stop taking during 2WW as it can make your uterus contract.
If you want to take a supp during 2WW you can take omega oils or flax seed oil
