Omega 3 and /or evening primrose oil

[Owlpatrol]

Hi all

I'm starting to take omega 3 fish oil tablets and wondered if anyone has any advise on these and or whether to take evening primrose with it or not bother? Not sure about evening primrose heard mixed views on it. Been trying 14 months now and no luck so looking at alternatives x

Hi owl -

I take omega 3,6,9 fish oil thing. Not sure it makes any difference... but it's good for my hair and overall health too.

EPO should be used before ov only, if I remember rightly? I took it a few months at the start of ttc nearly 2 years ago... so I think that's right but I'm happy to be corrected.

Before ovulation only evening primrose,I've been taking it only my first month. Says it's good for helping conceive a boy xx

I take EPO to help regulate my cycles. I take it all through the month and did with DD. It’s fine to take until you get a bfp, it says do not take if pregnant. And only then because it has never been tested on pregnant women. Just like 90% of medications. Even medication the Dr prescribes to pregnant women will carry a risk because as you can imagine no one is really willing to be a guinea pig in that situation.

I take epo to ov and fish oilsfor rest of cycle.
