Is it too late to start taking Evening Primrose Oil?

We just moved this past weekend and I completely forgot to start taking it. I know it'll probably take long to work anyway, but I really wanted to start taking it. I'm on CD7 now and I Ovulate anywhere from CD16-19 usually. Would it hurt to start taking it? Oh, it's a pill, right? Thanks!

ETA: How much should I take per day?

I saw this info online:

"EPO should only be taken from menstruation to ovulation. This is because EPO can cause uterine contractions in pregnancy. The dosage taken should be 1500mg to 3000mg per day. I usually took around 2000 mg of EPO. Since essential fatty acids are necessary, you can take flax seed oil in place of EPO after ovulation. This may be taken throughout pregnancy. Check the label to see the correct dosage. "
