Evening Primrose helps to nourish and moisturize the skin, helping as an anti-aging oil.  Pregnant mothers 37-40 weeks along use her to help promote labor and delivery, supporting the cervix in softening and thinning out.  Evening Primrose has no negative effects on the body with breast-feeding and is a great alternative to other unnatural medicines. People with blood pressure issues should be aware that some have reported this oil helps to thin the blood, while others say it helps to prevent high blood pressure. For women in menopause, Evening Primrose is used for breast pain, hot flashes, and other menopause symptoms. The only side effects that some women have complained about are headaches and upset stomachs. This oil can be taken orally (500mg orally twice a day), as well as vaginally (1000mg capsule once a day), to help initiate labor by preparing the cervix. Always ask your midwife or doctor before using any interventions to make sure they are safe for you.
