Question:
Can I go back to taking this supplement? I am 7 weeks post.

I have taken Evening Primrose Oil for years for PMS and skin benefits. Because it is an oil in a gel cap, I have stopped. I really miss it. Is there any point in taking it now? Will my body absorb it? Is there an alternative? Thanks to anyone who can help.    — Maureen R. (posted on October 7, 2002)

See if you can find a powdered form inside a regular capsule. The oil will most likely be malabsorbed. If you find you liked it, and it worked, and you cannot find it powdered in a pill, you might need to take a little more than you took before. The gel itself will break down.
