I was searching on google for things to improve my CM and i could see that Evening primrose oil was all over the place!!

For example
http://www.early-pregnancy-tests.com/evening-primrose.html
http://www.amazingpregnancy.com/pregnancy-articles/301.html

I also read on many sites that women actually swear by it ..like they do for preseed..

So just wanted some feedback from gals on this site...

I currently take EPO from the cd1 to O date, and have been for about 3 cycles now. I haven't been successful with a pregnancy yet, but I have noticed an improvement in my cm. Before, I had very little cm. Now I have "noticible" cm so I know it is working.

If you do use it, be sure to stop taking it after your O date because if you do get pregnant, EPO shouldn't be taken during pregnancy.

Hope this helps
