To Those Taking Evening Primrose Oil

[nysister]

Just want to say that this has worked wonders for my skin. I guess I was low in Estrogen or something. I saw a difference in 2 days, and I'm not joking. Perhaps it's because I keep my system cleansed, but that's a very short amount of time to see results.

Thanks for bumping this -- I had heard about how this helps with excema. I'm going to purchase. And in reading this thread, I see it has other enhancing properties that I have been dying for my whole life.

I had no clue EPO made your boobs fuller! I've been taking it for my thyroid and my bras are now kinda tight in the boobage area. Every day, dh keeps asking "How long have you had that bra? Has it always fit like that?"

Boobs just spillin out the top!

Wish I would have taken pictures, but I'm certain my boobs are a little bigger. No excema flare ups during this time even under intense stress.

Not sure about hair effects-I'm doing so much and am 20 weeks post and bunning everyday, so I can't tell what's causing what.

I'm going to keep taking it for now.

...just a quick bump to remind the possibly estrogen dominant women to avoid EPO if they can.

Also...if you are trying to conceive a baby (don't know why I clarified the "baby" part because I don't think any of us are trying to conceive a bunny rabbit...anyway, I digress...)

...if you are trying to conceive, stop taking EPO once you ovulate because EPO can cause you to miscarry since it directly counteracts the progesterone that helps keep a preg viable. See below from www.babysnark.com:

[FONT=arial,tahoma][FONT=arial,tahoma]Evening Primrose Oil (EPO)[/FONT][/FONT] [FONT=arial,tahoma][FONT=arial,tahoma] Usage: [/FONT][FONT=arial,tahoma] EPO is used in TTC to increase cervical mucus. It also lowers cholesterol, and reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. The active ingredient is cis-linoleic and cis-gammalinolenic acid (GLA). It may take up to three months to see results.[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=arial,tahoma][FONT=arial,tahoma] Recommended Dosage:[/FONT] [FONT=arial,tahoma] Follow the instructions on the bottle, or try 1,000 mg per day. Some recommend taking up to 3,000 mg per day, but this dosage has been known to cause uterine contractions, spotting and delayed ovulation in some women.[/FONT][/FONT]
[FONT=arial,tahoma][FONT=arial,tahoma] Side Effects:[/FONT] [FONT=arial,tahoma] EPO can cause uterine contractions. Do not use EPO during the two-week wait after ovulation, or during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Do not use if prone to seizures or if taking anti-epileptic/anti-seizure medications. Some people may experience nausea or headaches as side-effects.[/FONT][/FONT]


H and H HG to us all!!!

Fuller Breasts, better skin, less breakouts

Are you serious!!! How much are you taking and are there any side effects. I look like a little debbie star crunch cake. I need help bad.

I just bought some and the directions states to take: one capsule 3 to 6 times daily. Can I really take it six times a day and not have some adverse reaction? erplexed
