Evening Primrose Oil

I'm 35 + 2 and I've been drinking pregnancy tea for a few weeks now. I also heard that using evening primrose oil helps but I know absolutely nothing about it. When do you start it? Is it a pill that you swallow, what? Anyway, any help would be appreciated!

Oh I know it's more for later weeks.. From what I was reading it sounded more like 38 weeks and up. I have no intention on taking it until it's time. I'm tired of being pregnant but not willing to force bub out too early either.
I've been drinking Traditional Medicinals Pregnancy Tea since around 32 weeks. I just started with a cup a day and bumped it. Now at 3 a day. It doesn't have as much red raspberry leaf as the ones that are just for that but the other herbs in it I researched and they're supposed to help with labor/other things as well. It says its safe to drink through out pregnancy so it'd probably be okay no matter how far you are.
