Question

Anyone had success with evening primrose oil whilst trying to conceive?

Hi ladies,

I've just started using evening primrose oil this cycle from day 1 and I understand its only up until ovulation. I'm on my 7 month of trying to conceive my first child with no joy. I'm currently using clearblue digital ovulation tests and prenatal viamins and I'm going to try pressed this month also!!

I was just wondering if people have had success with it as I'm a little curiuous to hear peoples opinions.

I think i am a little in answering this.. but anyways.. i am 30 yrs old and have a 30-31 days cycle usually.. i took EPO last month and saw a MAJOR increase in my EWCM production.. however i think it delayed my O day by over a week.. i am not sure it was EPO that did it or the fact that i was suffering from cold on the day that i was suppose to ovulate.. my cycle was long this month.. 36 days.. so i am not sure it worked for me.. ewcm wise yes it did.. but messed my cycle too.. i am planning on not taking it this cycle and may be going with conceive plus.. how did it work out for you?

Thank you chaitz85 for your reply.
I have used EPO now for 2 cycles and I haven't noticed a major difference in regards to EWCM unfortunately but the postive is my ovulation hasn't being delayed if anything this cycle I ovulated day 18 when usually I'm around day 20/21 of a 32 day cycle. The preseed I used last cycle I did love the feel of it and it wasn't sticky at all. AF is due 20th march and im restraining myself to test but we will see.....
