Insight on PRIMROSE OIL

What are your thoughts on primrose oil?my obgyn suggested I use it to help my cervix but I've read about the possiblity of it causing postpartum hemmorhage and she wants me to take two in the morning and evening vaginally and it just seems kind of scary because there isn't any science to back it up that this is safe?& i just feel scared about whether or not it is really okay to do?i asked my midwife about the hemmorhage and she said there has been cases but yet she still wants me to do this?should I just let my body do this on its own or just do this knowing the potential risk?

    we're not doctors and we don't offer medical advice. that being said it causes hemorhage in people who already have issues with blood clotting, worse when taken as a pill internally by swallowing.

    Oh okay I see I just figured I'll just let my body do what it's meant to do on its own
