How effective is primrose oil?
Very good if can get the dosage right. Have a chat with a pharmacists first or get an appointment at a Well Women Clinic just to make sure there are no underling reasons for your problems
Reply:I've found it very effective for breast pain. 1000mg per day.
Reply:some of my girlfriends swear by it but it does nothing for me. on the other hand a combination magnesium/calcium supplement from ovulation to the first day of my cycle gets rid of my pmt, tiredness and makes my cramps much more manageable. I guess what i'm saying is you have to try things to know what works for you personally.
Reply:I have tried Agnus Castus from Dr Vogel %26amp; it has really helped me with PMT:

his range is the best I have tried %26amp; everything I bought from this range has worked for me.

PS%26gt; I don't know where they'd be available in the US but I'm sure you can get them in most good heaoth shops or if you google it online...
Reply:Evening primrose was suggested for PMT for a while, however controlled studies failed to show that it actually had any appreciable effect. However there is some evidence that the active ingredient of evening primrose, gamma linoleic acid, if taken daily does help reduce cyclic mastalgia.
Reply:For me it is amazing, my surgeon told me that it works in only about 30% of women though but I use it fiberous lumps that grow in my breasts. I'm not too sure for tiredness or the blues.
