NOW Supplements, Super Primrose 1300 mg with GLA, 120 Softgels

There is no taste or smell, which I like. The capsules are very large, but goes down okay with plenty of water. So far I’ve noticed some improvement with pain and skin relief. Will update later if it no longer works, but for now seems to be worth it.

I'm a huge fan of the NOW brand for years. I will research a new vitamin or supplement for my health and then go right to Amazon and see who has the best deal. This NOW brand had the most milligrams and the more soft gels for just the right price. I'm very happy with them! I took an off brand in a shop in the mall years ago and I remember it being a huge container for quite a bit of money. I just remember taking it because I thought I had to or it was suggested by the salesman. I remember not seeing any type of change and just going with it because I thought it was working from the inside to the outside. Not the case with that. I'm sure the soft gels were filled with all kinds of chemicals and soy. Bleh! Not for me. I love the VERY simple ingredients in this brand. I have noticed such a difference in my face since taking these! I'm so happy for what they're doing to my skin. I feel amazing. I started off taking 1 of them a day but I'm ready to bump it up to 2 and see if I can reap anymore benefits from them. Wow this will be my go-to supplement from now on. I'm forever hooked and so thankful that the NOW brand has so many great options for me. I have always been a big fan of their prices and quality. By the way, the reasons for taking this supplement was because I have eczema-like skin on my face and scalp. I was tired of itching and getting irritated from it. I take numerous vitamins and supplements to help me with this problem but I always seem to have random flair ups. I researched that Evening Primrose oil would work wonders for my eczema and I'm very thankful for all the research.

I was using another brand that was highly rated and it worked well for a few years but quality went down hill, along with being sent expired bottles. Desperate to find the same dose, hexane free and of high quality, I switched to these. They work incredibly well! Being mature in age, hot flashes don't stand a chance with these. I was taking them daily and then dropped down to every couple of days. Thinking at that point, maybe the hot flash nightmare was gone, I stopped. Within a couple weeks, they returned. I took one at morning and night for two days and they are again gone. I'll be staying on this wonderful supplement maintaining one a day or one every other day--whichever my body needs. So thankful for a product that not only works but works fast. This ole gal has no time for any drama of hot flashes any time, day or night. The only 'downside' to this supplement is that my nails grow faster. I like to keep mine short but for those who like longer nails, it may or may not affect you the same. :)

I have been told for years to try this for my fibroid pain and monthly cramps. I don't know why I put it off for so long! Yes it is a large gel cap, but it's pretty easy to swallow with a full bottle/glass of water. I also have read in previous reviews that the oil inside helps with dry skin, and being someone with psoriasis, I'm hoping this the case and I will report back if either way.... My only problem, and it is a "me" problem, not a product problem, is that I have a very hard time remembering to take it daily! So when I figure out a way to remind myself daily to take it and not just during the time of month I need it, I will come back and update if it helps with dry skin or if I noticed any difference in that area! But, if you suffer every month from cramps, I can say I remembered to take it before during and after that time of the month I needed it and it definitely helped, don't hesitate like I did for yrs! Give it a try.

I have been taking Evening Primrose Oil now for over a year. This is probably a little personal but, I started taking them at the suggestion of a friend for severe breast tenderness - not tenderness, it was really more like PAIN when I began perimenopause. I take at least two a day, and I wasn't convinced that they would work, to be honest. After a year of taking them, I can honestly attest to them working for all forms of breast pain. Mine was pretty severe, I couldn't sleep, wear bras or even NOT wear bras. It really was a pretty rough time in the middle of an already pretty rough time. When I ran out and kept forgetting to buy them for a couple of months after my sister died, the pain returned and I think it was then that I realized how much they helped with that in particular. It dawned on me that I hadn't felt pain at all - in any way, shape or form for that entire year. Which came as a shock to me. Now, I don't know how I feel about this but, hubby says that when I was off of it, I was also complaining of more PMS issues, and the household of boys - husband included in that, said that I was even moodier than usual. I haven't paid a lot of attention to my mood though, so I can't say that it's helped across the board for other things. This is just what they've told me they noticed. What I can swear by is that this honestly has been a lifesaver in regards to the breast pain. I don't ever want to go back to life without this product!

Good Product

Update 2: Do it. Give these a try if you’re dealing with peri, and, actually, even if you aren’t. Zero breast pain during PMS, mood way better, sleeping great, and skin looking good. I only take one at night with a magnesium supplement. Note to those dealing with peri - I had also been taking maca root and have found I only need the epo. Good luck! Update: I’m not going to change the rating just yet because I just started taking this again. I am taking it again because several things have occurred to me since I stopped taking it. 1. I had a period start early (4 days) just recently and I have not taken this for a couple months, so I think it’s just the peri and not the EPO. 2. Right around when I stopped taking it, I felt like my skin was looking super good....I had just had a bout of food poisoning so I actually thought my skin looked great because I had been through a major “purge.” Lol. Now I’m thinking it was actually the epo! 3. I’ve suffered with foot issues for years now - plantar, nerves, bone spur (I’m so lucky), but again, right around when I stopped taking this, I had been marveling at how good my feet had been feeling (I was even able to walk on a tile floor in bare feet with zero pain!). Didn’t make the connection at the time, I thought it was another supplement I was taking. Now I think it was the epo! 4. I had ZERO breast pain prior to the very early period popping up out of nowhere. Again, pretty sure it was the epo. Since stopping the epo, pretty bad pms breast soreness. These are all things I’ve read about in others reviews as being vastly improved with epo, so I am giving it another shot and am pretty excited. I’m glad I didn’t throw the bottle out! Stay tuned. Well, I don’t really know what to say about this! Lol. My period just started 5 days early (this has never happened in my life), and I can only chalk it up to this. As well, I don’t know if it’s helping with anything at all, really. I do feel like I’ve suddenly noticed a lot more hair loss lately and am wondering if this could be contributing? Anyway, I don’t recommend it.

Love this product I have been taking it for years.

Good quality supplement works

Just started using this . Although pills are big , quite easy to swallow

Es increíble. Tengo 2 semanas tomándolas y ya veo cambios. Tiendo a llenarme de granos en el área de la barbilla y la boca por estrés y desbalance hormonal (en el pasado fui diagnosticada con ovario poliquisitico). Después de tomar las cápsulas 2 veces por día con la comida los granos ya disminuyeron. Solo me quedan las marcas y ya estoy trabajando en matizarlas. Me han ayudado bastante. Las tomaré por 5 meses y descansaré un tiempo a ver cómo me va, ya que las considero una buena alternativa para evitar los anticonceptivos :)

Been buying this always
