Hello and thanks for your post

Whilst some people may suggest evening primrose oil unfortunately there seems to be little evidence to show it works in managing hot flushes. As far as I am aware it is safe to take but you can always check with your GP or breast unit to double check.

We have a section about hot flushes and how to manage them on our website here.

I hope this helps. Give us a ring if you would like to talk things over.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Best wishes,

Celene
