    Red face Evening primrose

    Hi yall...

    Okay, for the 2nd month in a row after AF has been...normally towards the end of the first week after she has come and gone and turn into a STARK RAVING MAD WOMAN! :PMS:

    I wake up totally pi$$ed off with everyone....just raging mad! This is so bizarre for me.........I was wondering if anyone has used Evening Primrose for hormonal ...imbalances....I guess that would be the word!?!

    Thanks in advance girls.

    My mum used to, and my sister still does as they have very irregular and very heavy periods. They seem to think it helps.

    Thanks Jodi! Mine are normal......it is just this *****y, nasty, cranky mood I have had for two days...today i am fine, like a cloud has been lifted!

    DH thought maybe because i have always gotten tired during AF, that I am tired but overtired as I have two active boys to look after....

    Might go and check out Blackmores website for more info. I think they have an online advisor from memory!

    i have been taking the combination of evening primrose & fish oil for a while now and it seems to help regulate my period and make my skin better

    oh i should add that it doesn't make a difference for the amount of blood that comes out for each period but it seems to regulate my monthly cycle better....hope that helps somehow

    I know this is an old post but I might be able to help.

    Try a cream with wild yam extract in it. Ask your health food store or google for an online store.
    My SIL has used it for years and I used it when I had bad period pain and it works wonderfully.
