Hey ladies,
To those of you that have taken Fenugreek please answer these questions for me.
1. How did you know when to increase your dose?
2. Once your milk supply increased did you continue the Fenugreek?
3. How long before you noticed an increase in supply?
Re: Fenugreek Help
i used fenugreek when my lo was 6/7 months old because originally i had an oversupply and when i finally got it under control i thought i had an UNDER supply... which was not actually the case. why do you think you need it just curious?
i started with half of what it said on the bottle, and increased until i smelled like maple syrup. everyone says this is when you have the right dosage.
it took 2 or 3 days to notice a difference.
i continued to take it but it ended up bothering my los tummy after a couple weeks so i discontinued use and had no problems with my supply afterward.
nursing often is the best way to up your supply, fyi. plus drink lots of water!
