I am interested in finding induced lactation information. There is a lot out there but some of it is not clear. I have fenugreek and milk thistle, I cannot find blessed thistle. I have a breast pump but not sure how often to use it to get started etc. I need some help please. I don't want to use hormones.
thank you
You can induce lactation without hormones. Milk Thistle is not the same as Blessed Thistle. Look in this section for information.
http://www.asklenore.info/breastfeeding/abindex.htmlYou will need to use the correct herbs as well as Domperidone in my opinion. It is not a hormone but a drug used for digestive issues that has a side effect of causing lactation. If you have questions post them over in this forum

You can find Blessed Thistle here
www.herbs-wholesale.com and type Blessed Thistle into the search.
