Hello, I already have a 7-year-old daughter, and now I am planning to have a baby. I want to use Evening Primrose Oil in combination with Blackmores Conceive Well Gold 28 Tablets 28 Capsules. After finishing Blackmores Conceive Well Gold, will I still use Evening Primrose Oil in combination with Blackmores Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Gold? How many boxes of Blackmores Conceive Well Gold 28 Tablets 28 Capsules should you use if you are not pregnant? I plan to drink 1 box and then use Evening Primrose Oil in combination with Blackmores Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Gold. Is Evening Primrose Oil used continuously daily until pregnancy? Should Evening Primrose Oil be discontinued at ovulation? Or drink continuously every day until conception? Can my husband drink Evening Primrose Oil with me? Looking forward to specific advice, I'm not in Australia so I can't call you. Or you can advise me via e-mail. Thanks

I have taken Bio Zinc and Evening Primrose Oil so far. Is it good to combine those two? Should I stop taking periodically EPO and if so, how long is recommended? Would it be safe to take continuously?
