I have suffered from Diabetic Neuropathy, Fibromyalgia and Cervical & Lumbar Degenrative Arthritis,Insomnia, Anxiety and Menopause for the last 6yrs, which I have been treated with MANY prescription drugs and undergone treatment at pain clinic. All of which has been no help in getting rid of the pain I suffer from daily. Being desperate to find myself some help during some internet research I st...

After talking to my sister in law about my bouts of sadness I had been experiencing for the previous couple of years and wondering whether they were symptomatic of pre menopause, she told me that an older lady had advised her to take EPO. she had followed the advice and been taking for the last 20 years. She said she had hardly had any menopausal symptoms. I followed her advice and tried it. It was unbelievable. I used to get these waves of sadness 2 to 3 times a week. Almost like an anxiety flush. After starting the EPO once a day every day I didn’t experience another bout for at least three months. Been taking for nearly a year now, I still get a few episodes but very rarely now. I also take menopause vitamins supplements 2-3 times a week. Recently started to experience the occasional hot flush, but they are ok so far. Read More Read Less

Blackmore evening primrose oil is the best product. I try other brands didn't work for me. I see differences with my hair, skin and hot flash is gone comes only once every 4 months if I am stress or so otherwise it's magic pill.

Using it only for three days but I already can feel the difference. NO hot flashes, no pain. I used it for my boys acnes and it really helped. Very good suppliment. I am glad I decided to give a try after spending years with doctors and no answers.

I started taking EPO 9 months ago when I started experiencing hot flashes. Within a few days the hot flashes were gone!! A wonderful help!! For the past several months this has continued and I am so much happier!! I did start to notice a weird sensitivity in the back of my mouth though about 4 months in to taking EPO. Thought it was my usual oral allergy symptoms, but it was different. I went and skipped a few days of EPO and the feeling went away. Went back on EPO and the sensitivity started up again. I was taking EPO 1x/day 1000mg. I have now started taking the EPO only 2-3x/week and no hot flashes and no sensitivity in my mouth. My daughter has found EPO to significantly help her with her PMS symptoms too! She too though found she had a slight allergic reaction. She would get itchy legs. We lessened her dose to 1x/week and all itchiness went away too. This little trial and error was worth the benefits EPO provides us both. I am 53 and she is 18.Read More Read Less

I'm 54 and my hot flashes were unbearable. My Mom told me that she used evening primrose oil when she went through menopause and it worked for her. I purchased 1000mg Jamison brand online. I take 1 pill per day with dinner. Omg! I almost started hormones because I was going out of my mind. One month on EPO and NO more flashes. I'm sleeping much better! Please try this before considering hormones.

I'm 49, no perimenopause symptoms as yet apart from severe irritability ( really bad ) I was getting annoyed for the smallest thing, which is not like me. I started with Evening Primrose oil and within 2 days I'm seriously not feeling angry. I've only had 1000mg each day for 2 days, surely it can't work that quick, well if it has its amazing, I'm certainly going to carry on the 1000mg a day.

I was experiencing hot flashes during the day and night. My Doctor prescribed a low dose of antidepressants but the side effects were awful. My flashes went away but I felt sick! I stopped them immediately and was ready to start estrogen. Then I discussed this with my Mom and she mentioned evening primrose oil had helped her. I ordered Jamison 1000 mg. After one week I do still have flashes but they are very mild. I can sleep a bit better and I feel a lot different! Thanks to my Mom I think my suffering may be over for now! Give it a try! Be sure to take with food...I take it at night with dinner.Read More Read Less

I have been using EPO for about 25years to help with sore breast for PMS and it helped I only took 1 pill 1000mg once to twice every month Now that I am going through menopause I take the same dosage to help with hot flashes and again it has helped so much in reducing the amount of times that I get a hot flash

I'm in my late 20's and have always had problems with irregular periods, but last year they suddenly just stopped all together. My GP did multiple tests to try and work out whether it was a hormonal issue or if I was anaemic, and all the tests came back fine and clear so we were stumped. My mum suggested I try EPO, and two weeks later I had my first period in almost a year. I had another one the next month, and am hoping for a third!

I'm 52 and have started having around 20 or more hot flashes a day. I read that evening primrose will prevent it. It has excellently. I might have 4 flashes now and I have only been taking the primrose for three days. It started working the first day. The hot flashes I do have are 80 % less severe also. This works really good and really fast. Also good for many other things. Definitely worth a try.

I started using this to help with hormone issues I was having. I’ve been using for about 2 months consistently and I’ve had great results. Not to mention my Skin is flawless! In the beginning I noticed a few new breakouts, but apparently this is a purge phase and after two weeks my skin was noticeably much smoother. I’m glad I gave it a try.

Had severe breast pain. A zinging, with aching and sharp pain. Tried ice packs, heating pads, and then I tried EP. Completely gave me relief.

In the past year, I have begun to insert one capsule vaginally for about three days every menstrual cycle in accordance with pain and dryness. I noticed that my breasts are actually more tender and fuller with using this as a treatment. Also I unfortunately frequently experience BV from using saliva as lubricant(I assume). This instantly clears up the symptoms of BV before they become an issue. In my eyes, an incredible herbal treatment.

I'm 74 & have been taking two 1000 mg softgels a day for over 20 yrs. If I go without for 1-2 weeks, the pain returns & it will take 10 days of 3 softgels a day for the pain to go away again. I recommend it to all anyone who complains of arthritis pain. Since Jamieson has now discontinued, I've been looking for another manufacturer & worried about the delay since I only have enough for 10 days.

My "Hot Flashes" had me to the point of feeling Nauseated, they were so overwhelming and unpredictable. I had heard nightmare stories on taking prescription hormone replacement and wanted that as a last resort. I searched the internet for natural remedies and found several testimonies about EVENING PRIMROSE OIL so I tried it. After 2 days of 2000 mg doses the hot flashes are few and far between. I would strongly recommend this to any woman suffering from hot flashes. I'm glad I did and you will be too!Read More Read Less
