Hi Catherine.
I used it once or twice in the last 20 months. I think it's 2
capsules 3x per day, but I took one once and 6 hours later I had
MELONS on my chest. I don't think I really needed it, but I was just
having one of those small moments of self-doubt.

I have had adverse reactions to fenugreek every time I have tried it
and when I spoke to my homeopath about it she actually said she never
recommends it herself because it seems rather innocuous but is
actually quite a powerful diuretic and blood thinner and can cause
exactly the problems
Hi Catherine,
Can you please post this message to the new list.
I have some information on Fenugreek also but
need to find it, I'll reply to your post on the new
list.
Regards
Kim

Catherine,
What brand is the liquid tincture you have? Does it say anything about 1:1 or 1:2 ratio on there at all - this way I can give you a dosage?

Hi Catherine
Fenugreek has definitely been known for helping in the production of
breastmilk. There are a few problems with it though, especially in
women who are oestrogen dominant. In these women, too much
fenugreek causes breasts too enlarge and in some cases it is very
painful.
There
Dear Judy
Small world, this was something I was using during the week!!
Recommended dosage 6000mg per day in divided doses of 2000mg TDS. Use until
milk comes in (although if there has been no dramatic improvement after two
weeks I would try domperidone or maxalon) and then cease. A response is
of David 13, Haydie 11, Alysha 10 and Baby Tyler 8 months
