Brief Answer:
Stop taking it

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes evening primrose oil is not indicated while trying to conceive so better discontinue at the earliest and skip one cycle of periods and then plan pregnancy so as to let the effect go from body.
Give her vitamin E tablet once a day for 3 months from now (safe in pregnancy also so continue if she conceives in between)
It is very effective so she will feel better.

her period is due in 2 days. it usually lasts for 5 days. so, is it fine to plan pregnancy after 7 days.

Brief Answer:
Skip next cycle too

Detailed Answer:
No dear, skip next whole cycle and then try to conceive.
And start taking folic acid tablets which are good as preconceptional vitamins and helps in good formation of baby.
Take care and all the best
