Does anyone here take omega 3 fish oil? I have a question concerning my hair?

Since taking these omega 3's my hair is super oily i wash my hair with shampoo twice and dont condition the roots daily and about an inch of hair from the roots down is oily my hair has never been oily like this before so im wondering if anyone else experienced this same effect when taking these vitamins im also 40 weeks pregnant so it could be hormones but it never happened with my 2 other children please anybody who has takin this vitamin give me some info!!! Thanks

    i have had an increase in oil in my hair. I have been taking it for a long time. Just keep it clean. The benefits of the oil outweigh any inconvenience caused by the oily hair

    It might be your shampoo. I have the same problem, and I just found that using clarifying shampoo can clear all the gunk in my hair, and brushing my hair twice daily can distribute the oil throughout your hair. Oily hair does have very moisturizing effects to your hair. Also try not washing your hair in hot water.

    I haven't had this, but I have used Omega 3 for my dogs. It does make their dry itchy fur/skin more moisturized and healthy, but not over-oily. Maybe it's the combination of hormones and Omega 3?...

    Congrats and good luck!

    I give this to my dogs. None have oily hair and one actually has dry skin. Perhaps it is hormones.
