Tried it! Evening Primrose Oil

I have noticed over the last 6 months-ish that my PMS symptoms (mainly cramps and moodiness) have gotten really bad.  So bad that I can't even stand myself most of the time.  When I came across this pin about Evening Primrose Oil saying "...Helps with hormonal acne, PMS, weight control, chronic headaches, menopause, endometriosis, joint pain, diabetes, eczema,..." I figured why not try it?  I get lots of headaches, have eczema pretty bad in the winter, and well, I already explained about PMS.  


On a recent shopping trip, I picked up a bottle since it was inexpensive. 





The results?  I can't give you any.  Upon opening the bottle, I was so grossed out.  They smell absolutely HORRIBLE.  Be glad there is no scratch-and-sniff computer monitors; seriously...I would torture you, too.  I may have been able to plug my nose and deal with the smell, however, these suckers are HUGE.  I put some next to my iPod Nano to give you a size comparison.  Also, keep in mind, I regularly take very large vitamins.  Taking pills has never been an issue for me.  So, if you had seen and/or pinned these pills, just beware the smell and size!  ;)  


Have YOU tried them?  Let us know your results!  I'd love to hear if they actually work!  Want to try?  You can order Evening Primrose Oil on Amazon, or just pick them up at a store local to you.
