Primrose oil %26amp; pregnancy?
The first rule to be followed strictly in pregnancy is that do not take any kind of medication (even herbal) without consulting ur doctor/midwife. there are many herbal medicines/supplements which should not be taken in during pregnancy as they can have an effect on ur baby as well as induce labour. So, consult ur doctor first and then take anything if ur doctor gives u a green signal.
Reply:I don't honestly know. I have never heard of primrose oil being related to fertility in any way.



However, contact an herbalist and ask, just to be on the safe side.

A Q %26amp; A directory of all the questions she's been asked before is already there. Read through it to see if she's addressed primrose oil before. I don't think she has, in relation to fertility.



So if you don't see anything on it, go back to that index page and find the link to email her under her picture. That will get you an answer from a trained, practicing herbalist.
Reply:I take that now its super primrose i dont know if thats the same thing its the gel capsules...and i take mine with vitex and a prenatal i was told strictly as soon as i found out i am pregnant to discontinue the primrose and the vitex because it can cause you to have a miscarriage....goodluck to you!!!
Reply:Truthfully I wouldnt recommend taking it quite yet in your pregnancy. I am 36 weeks along and the dr. had me start taking it at beginning of 35 weeks. from last saturday to yesterday i went from 0% effaced to 60% effaced and 1.5 cm dialated. so all it does is ripen your cervix, and you dont want that right yet. start taking it at 35 or 36 weeks to help tone your cervix and prepare it for labor. hope This was some help.
Reply:EPO won't effect your ability to get PG again.



EPO also will not induce labor, as many women seem to think. Instead, it helps to ripen the cervix.
