I'm 28. my mom had breast cancer and dead 3 years ago. now, i have fibroma in breast, about 6mm. is it good to take evening primrose oil?or shouldn't?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Primrose Oil: There are no literature reports that I am able to find that suggest primrose Oil is harmful. Read this: http://www.drweil.com/vitamins-supplements-herbs/supplements-remedies/is-evening-primrose-oil-safe-after-breast-cancer/. Some studies suggest it might be helpful in patients who have a certain familial gene mutation associated with aggressive breast cancer. I would undergo genetic testing.
