It's worth noting that hormonal protocols for relactation/induced lactation
like the ones on the website mentioned involve exogenous oestrogen which
will prevent lactation for the time the hormones are taken. For this reason
they are usually considered inappropriate for situations where there is a
child to breastfeed (ie in relactation for biological children or adoptive
situations post-placement) which would include the situation described.
