Evening primrose oil
Has anyone used this before? I mainly want to take it to help me not tear during labor and I'm only 33 weeks so I'd wait until I'm 36 weeks. If someone could tell me how I take it and a dosage and how and if it worked for them that would be great.
Thanks!
Thanks!
To prevent yourself from tearing your supposed to use the evening primrose oil to massage ur area not take it orally .. look up preineal massage (not sure if I spelled it correct) but it will tell you how and when to do it .. that wut I plan to do when I get further along since I tore a lil bit with my son
I take two orally during the day and insert 4 vaginally at night. Wait till you're 37 weeks, that's what is recommended. Mine are the 500mg ones.
I took 2 every night orally some people insert it in them but I couldnt bring myself to do it. Its supposed to help the cervix prepare for labor didn't help me I had a 3rd degree tear
