Evening primrose oil is commonly used to help regulate hormonal imbalances in women, especially during premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menopause. It contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that assists in the production of prostaglandins, which play a role in hormone regulation. The GLA content in evening primrose oil can help improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. It may reduce inflammation, relieve symptoms of conditions like eczema and dermatitis, and promote skin hydration and elasticity. Evening primrose oil is often used to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness. The GLA content is believed to help regulate hormonal fluctuations and reduce these symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
The primary mechanism by which evening primrose oil may impact female hormones is through its GLA content.

PGE1 is thought to have anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory properties and may help support hormonal processes.
