Must have! Great for Hashimoto Sufferers

I have hashimotos. This is the FIRST supplement where I took it and within in days noticed a significant difference. My husband keeps asking me where I'm getting all this energy from. I still require a nap every day but in the evening I'm not as sluggish. I've been cleaning and getting things done around the house. Normally I'm doing the bare minimum. I've been very pleased with this 2 weeks in and I don't think I'll ever go without. I recommend every woman take this. My hair seems to be experiecing some benefits as well. Highly, highly recommend especially for hashimotos sufferers

Helped me have a successful VBAC

My doula recommended I take this to prepare for my labor and delivery. I believe this and the other products she recommended helped me have a successful VBAC! At first I took it orally then took it vaginally. I didn't finish the whole bottle because I had the baby about a week or two after starting doses. I gave whatever was leftover to my friend who was also pregnant and she went into labor a few days later! Helps immensely with effacement. Will definitely buy again if I get pregnant again

helps w fertility

this increases cervical mucos, keeping sperm alive longer. both times i got pregnant i used these, about 3 a day. its also kind of an estrogen in the body and i think it helps mature and release good quality eggs. stop using it after you are pregnant though as the mix of it and progesterone can increase clotting factors which is a cause of a lot of miscarraiges

This product works for me.

After using this product for more then 6 months, I can say that it works for me. I am using this product to get some sleep due to my menopause symptoms. It helped me to fall a sleep practically every night. I take one in the morning and one at night. It does not make you drowsy or feel sleepy during the day. Although, that everyone has different sensitivity to to different substances, I would recommend to try this product. You just need to understand, that it really take time before you feel the results. I am glad I did, because the alternative would be some hormonal medicine, and I am very glad I don't have to take hormones and endanger myself

It smells funny. I had been using Barleans Primrose oil for …

Unfortunately, I will be returning it. It smells funny. I had been using Barleans Primrose oil for years, then I learned it was sourced in China. I had just ordered a new bottle of Barleans and when it came it stunk to high heaven. So I ended up throwing it out. This had never happened b4. So I researched and found I liked Solgar and ordered it. While waiting for it to arrive, I had written them and asked where it was sourced and they too said China and manufactured in the US. When it arrived it too had a bad smell. I am returning it. Disappointed trying to find one sourced in the US. Also that now I have to go on the hunt for another good brand w/the dosage I want and in the meantime not having taken any for 3wks now

Fibrocystic Breast Masses Gone

I had too many fibrocystic breast masses to count. After a Gyn told me about Evening Primrose Oil, I started taking it and they were gone within a few months. Just be sure to take one every day. They are a bit large, but the gel caps seem to go down easily

Great for labor

I read that EPO is supposed to help with thinning of the cervix and therefore, would make for an easier labor. I used these capsules during the last 5 weeks of my pregnancy (you can use them orally or as a vaginal suppository). Two hours into my 6 hour labor, I had my first check and I was 4cm and 100% effaced already. This coupled with Alvita - Red Raspberry Leaf Caff Free, 24 bag helped me achieve a fast, uncomplicated, and nearly pain-free natural labor and delivery of my first child. I will definitely be using these again for future pregnancies

Get back normal!

I am 32 and 2 & 1/2 years post partum and have been suffering from lack of libido and the desert-like effects that come with it (if you know what I mean), spotting btwn cycles, and pretty bad cramping after my cycles for some odd reason. I breastfed for one year and thought that was the reason for my side effects but after I stopped nothing changed. I had my gyno check my hormone levels and he said everything came back within normal ranges. All I knew was that everything seemed off! 2 1/2 years with 0 libido made me feel like I wasnt even a woman anymore. I tried Maca root for a while-no effects, tried ashwaganda-no effects, even paid $500 for the "o shot"- still no effects. I pretty much gave up on trying things until recently I tried this Evening Primrose Oil really just to try and stop the spotting I was having. This pill has literally been a miracl. It reversed ALL of my negative post partum effects within just days! No more dryness, no more spotting, libido returned (not completely but enough to notice) and no more heavy cramps. I couldnt be happier and more relieved because Im finally feeling like myself again. I really hope this helps my fellow post partum mommies because most doctors wont point you in the holistic direction which usually helps better than any medicine-if you find the right one

Excellent Customer Service

Had to write about the excellent customer service I received. I purchased my second bottle of Evening Primrose Oil and experienced burping and indigestion that I did not incur with the first bottle. I emailed Amazon that I thought I received a bad batch. Austin Medical emailed me within 48 hours and sent me a new bottle. That is GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Thank you. P.S. If you are experiencing PMS or menopausal syptoms, I recommend trying evening primrose oil. It helps tremendously

I'm sticking with it. Thumbs up! You still decide for yourself

Everyone is different. Combined with L-Lysine I lost 2" from my thighs overnight. My no starchy carb clean Foster Farms Chicken aka clean food diet of high protein is amazingly coming together. I've added alpha lipoic acid and ashwagandha which the Essentia 9.5 alkaline water seems to be correcting my adrenal fatigue no HMO paid practicing pseudo doctors will pay attention to. I'm at least 25 lb lighter since Feb 22. First purchase was at Drugstore but higher priced
