Evening primrose oil - have I done something really stupid?

Ok so in a bid to increase my ewcm this month I took evening primrose oil for three days starting roughly on day 3, but I followed the recommendation on cervicalmucus.org which is to take 3 to 4 tablets a day. I only took 3 each day. Then I read that evening primrose oil can delay / stop ovulation and had a total panic and haven't taken any more.

So I'm now on day 11 and last month ovulated on day 16 and previous 3 months on day 14. I use the clearblue test that picks up estrogen and lh surge and since I've used them I've always picked up an estrogen surge on day 10, but no estrogen as yet so far this month. My problem is I don't really know what's normal for me as I conceived first time in previous pregnancies.

So have I done something really stupid and totally messed up ovulation for this month? Can anyone advise?
