Barlean's Evening Primrose Oil
A supplement that reduces cramps and improves skin suppleness!? If you’re looking for the perfect PMS-fighting product, Barlean’s Evening Primrose Oil is the one for you! Rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), this supplement contains the healing properties you’ve been searching for.
Evening primrose oil (EPO) is extracted from seeds of the North American plant of the same name. Utilized both orally and topically, bruises and sore throats are among the many ailments it has been known to support. EPO has healing properties that come from a fatty acid found within the oil. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is an omega-6 fatty acid that is responsible for many of EPO’s healing benefits, such as:
- Reducing skin redness*
- Increasing skin moisture*
- Support for occasional depression and irritability*
- Lessening breast pain*
- Helping control symptoms of PMS*
- Stimulating nerve function*
- Supporting heart health*
Whether it’s menopausal or menstrual, don’t just deal with the bothersome acne and painful breasts that go along with it — combat those symptoms with the help of Barlean’s Evening Primrose Oil!

FAQs About Barlean's Evening Primrose Oil
Q: Does this help with PMS or breast tenderness? A: Yes. That's one of the main reasons people take evening primrose oil. A 2-softgel serving gives you 234 mg of GLA, the omega-6 fatty acid people usually look for for monthly comfort.
Q: How many softgels should I take per day? A: Two a day. I'd take them with food since you're getting 2.5 grams of fat per serving, and oils usually sit better that way.
Q: I've heard that evening primrose oil helps skin. Is that true? A: It can. Two softgels give you 1846 mg of linoleic acid and 234 mg of GLA. Those are the fatty acids people usually look for for skin moisture and redness support.
Q: Does Barlean's Evening Primrose Oil have omega-3s in it? A: No. This is an omega-6 oil, mainly linoleic acid and GLA, with a smaller amount of oleic acid.
Q: Should I take this if I'm on medication? A: Maybe, but I'd check first. If you take any medications or have a medical condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before you start it.
Q: Why does this have gelatin in it? Is it vegetarian? A: No, it's not vegetarian. The softgel uses gelatin, glycerine, and water, so if you need a plant-based option, I'd pick a different formula.
Q: Can I use this while pregnant or nursing? A: I'd wait until you've talked to your OB or midwife before starting this one. That's the safest call with evening primrose oil during pregnancy or nursing.
