I suggest that you go to a Reproductive Endocrinologist and Infertility specialist.
There is not enough information to recommend the safe use of evening primrose oil during pregnancy or breastfeeding and its effects on embryotoxicity.

I wonder if you have seen an infertility specialist. They are called a Reproductive Endcrinology and Infertility specialist. The inital work up should include cycle day 3 FSH, LH, Estradiol, Prolactin, TSH, midluteal phase Progesterone level; semen analysis of your husband; a hysterosalpingogram (HSG); and a pelvic ultrasound preferably on cycle day 3 to look at your ovaries and do an antral follicle count. If you have not seen a REI specialist, I suggest that you make an appointment.
I do not recommend that you take pimrose oil.
