Evening primrose oil moderately effective
In our exploration of treatment options for mastalgia, we focused on the effectiveness of evening primrose oil combined with vitamin E. Conducted at King George's Medical University, the study assessed 106 female patients suffering from breast pain.

We measured psychological status using the DASS-42 scale and pain using a visual analog scale. While topical NSAIDs showed a strong response rate, evening primrose oil and vitamin E had a notable effect in 6.98% of patients.

Overall, both treatments proved valuable, though we found no correlation between psychological conditions and pain severity.

The best thing ever! I purchased it at full price and began with another brand but switched after noticing this one at a lower price. We are on our second bottle and love it! It's great for anxiety, sleep issues, and stress. Before taking these vitamins, I experienced hair loss and sore breasts. Both my partner and I now sleep much better and feel improved overall. I won't go without these supplements again; they really work!
