Evening primrose oil

Anybody ever used it to help with effacement at the end of a previous pregnancy? Do you think it worked?? Why or why not?

I took it orally from 36/37? weeks during my last pregnancy, and vaginally for two nights before I went into labor on my own (39w1d). I tend to believe that it helped, but who knows....

    Idk. I was facing induction last pregnancy, Dr. Recommended I take it.
    I took 1 blue cohosh pill instead, and decided I just wanted my body to do its thing instead.
    I went into labor a few hours later.

    The pill may have worked, may not have.

    I'm sure it can help, but might not be effective for everyone.

    I'm interested in trying this as well as the raspberry leaf tea this time. Last pregnancy I did castor oil when I went overdue :-q and though it worked and baby was healthy- I do not recommend! Also not interested in medical induction either though
