Hi Joanne, yup the domperidone 2 tablets x 3 times a day dosage was prescribed by gynae. But I'm starting to slowly decrease the dosage before I eventually stop. If bm supply drops, I'll just supplement more with fm. After struggling with bm supply issues for nearly 4 months, I've decided not...

Hi Joanne, I'm taking fenugreek 3 capsules x 3 times a day and domperidone 2 tablets x 3 times a day. The fenugreek was prescribed by LC and the domperidone was prescribed by gynae. This really helped to increase my supply, from having to supplement with fm at every feed to supplementing only...
