Does Efamol Omega Femme contain hormones or phytoestrogens?Updated a day ago

No. Efamol Omega Femme does not contain oestrogen, progesterone or added phytoestrogens, and it is not a form of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

It's a food supplement combining Evening Primrose Oil, saffron extract and selected vitamins to provide nutritional support.

Why do people sometimes think Evening Primrose Oil contains oestrogen?

Evening Primrose Oil is often associated with women's hormonal wellbeing, which can lead to the misconception that it contains plant-based oestrogens.

However, Evening Primrose Oil is a source of Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid, rather than oestrogen or phytoestrogens.

GLA is involved in the body's normal fatty acid metabolism and can be converted into other fatty acids involved in cell signalling processes.

How does Omega Femme support hormonal wellbeing?

Omega Femme contains vitamin B6, which contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.

It also contains Safr’Inside™ saffron extract, which has been studied for its potential role in mood and emotional wellbeing.

Can I take Omega Femme alongside HRT?

If you're taking HRT, we recommend checking with your GP or pharmacist before adding Omega Femme to your routine.

Omega Femme does not replace HRT or any prescribed treatment.
