Evening Primrose Oil
I have been given Evening Primrose Oil as I can't take HRT and was having a great deal of discomfort in my breasts. Are there any side-effects I should watch out for?

Re: Evening Primrose Oil
Evening primrose oil can help breast tenderness but is unlikely to help menopausal symptoms. I am not aware of significant side effects.
I would be interested to know why you are unable to take HRT--there may well be a genuine reason but there are many myths around HRT and there are very few women who absolutely cannot take HRT
