I have seen a study claiming that the Omega-3 in flax (alpha linolenic acid) is more converted in females than males.
The claim was just over 20% for females and only 4% for males.
This is because women bear children and the fetus needs alot of DHA for the brain.
I think if you give primrose (or borage) oil with the Flax you will have better conversion.
The new algae sourced EPA and DHA are typically used by vegans.
There is a newer one that has higher EPA than the older ones that were predominately DHA, type.
