Evening primrose oil

[Deethehippy]

I take evening primrose oil as i have heard it is good for regulating hormones and reducing PMS etc. Today i just read that it should NOT be taken after ovulation as it can cause uterine contractions?!? I am approx 6DPO today so should i stop taking it? I am worried now. :/

Hi ya,

Yes you should stop taking the EP the day of ovulation, this is the same for Vitex too.

I take it every month and just stop the day that I get a pos OPK.
