Have you ever heard of Fenugreek Seeds??Fenugreek is one of the world's oldest medicinal herbs. It has a variety of uses, including increasing breastmilk production. Fenugreek seeds contain protein, vitamin C, niacin, potassium, and diosgenin (a phytoestrogen compound that seems to mimic the effects of the hormone estrogen) that promotes the milk production.
FENUGREEK & BREASTFEEDING
Fenugreek seeds contain hormone precursors that increases milk supply. Scientists do not know for sure how this happens. Some believe it is possible because breasts are modified sweat glands, and fenugreek stimulates sweat production. Many women today take fenugreek in a pill form (fenugreek seeds placed in capsules). The pills can be found at most vitamin and nutrition stores and at many supermarkets and natural foods stores. Fenugreek can also be taken in tea form, although tea is believed to be less effect than the pills.
SIDE EFFECTS
The most common side effect is a maple syrup odor in urine and sweat (this is not a bad thing, it just means that the proper dosage has been reached). If overdosage it also can cause diarrhea, aggravate asthma, or hypoglycemia. Mothers who suffer from asthma, or who are allergic to peanuts, should probably not take fenugreek. Pregnant women should not take fenugreek because it can cause uterine contractions.
PREGNANT WOMAN SHOULD AVOID TAKING FENUGREEK AS IT MAY INDUCE LABOUR
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE EFFECT?
Typically, increased milk production from taking Fenugreek occurs within 24 hours or sometimes 2-3 days after beginning supplementation, with full effectiveness attained within 2 weeks. Once milk flow has been successfully established, Fenugreek usage can be stopped without a corresponding interruption in breast milk flow.
