Is anyone an expert on evening primrose oil ?

Since I had a m/c 6 months ago I have developed the following annoying symptoms:

  • eczema type rashes on back and legs
  • really red face near when period is due made worse by heat/dryness (rosacea ??)
  • bad pre-menstrual symtoms. Not sure emotional but physical
  • Inability to conceive (I know, i know it hasn't really been THAT long)


Have just read all the above can be caused by a lack of a fatty acid which can be helped by evening primrose oil. Does anyone know anything about this and also whether it would be safe to use when ttc ?

Many thanks.
