EPing , one side dried up?

so i've been pumping for almost 4 months now and my never great supply was getting even worse so i started fenugreek. it helped some but now i think it is decreasing again and one side seems to have dried up even though i pumped it the same. do i just stop pumping that side? i guess..it ony has a few drops, but last night it leaked? does this make any sense? i was gonna try for 6 months, but at this rate it isn't looking good!

    Is there a clog?  Have you tried massage/compression?  Or heat?  It's normal for one side to be a stud and the other to be a dud, but when I EP'd with DS, I was always able to get at least 1 ounce.

    I've been EP for over 11 months and every once in a while, I will get nothing from one side. If I see after 5-7 minutes nothing coming out, I will stop pumping that side because it starts to hurt. I have no idea why this happens. I would just keep pumping both sides unless you continually see zero output from one side.
