I also used the oil on my skin and noticed it became more nourished and smoother. My skin's dryness and oiliness have balanced out. I highly recommend it. Like my review if you found it helpful!

The product quality is outstanding! My teenage daughter began using it daily to manage hyperthyroidism and polycystic ovaries, which caused heavy bleeding, irregular cycles, and mood fluctuations. After a few months, alongside PMS vitamins, her blood work showed normal thyroid hormone levels! Her periods are now regular, and her mood has stabilised. Evening primrose oil essentially restored her hormonal balance.
