Everyone who has periods experiences them differently and has their own ways of managing them. Periods have long been a taboo topic, but there have been increased efforts to reduce the stigma around them. As part of this, there has been more discussion about the wide variety of ways to relieve the symptoms that often accompany periods. Evening Primrose Oil is a supplement which is a source of omega-6 fatty acids. While the scientific evidence for its use is inconclusive, many people find it helps their health and wellbeing, including for premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and other symptoms of periods.
