thanks so much, ok what does flaxseed oil do. I was going to pick it up but didnt..

i asked the pharmacist what does evening primrose do, he says nothing really..maybe help the heart??

I said why would ob's around the world suggest it for women stuff. He said he had no idea. I think this pharmacist needs to go back to school lol

primrose oil helps with cervical mucus. flaxseed oil does the same but is considered safer in the tww b/c primrose oil can cause uterine contractions

i took EPO and it did NOTHING except screw up my cycle (which was already messed up!). i had 32-36 day cycles and when i took epo, it went up to 46.
