I have been interested to read the posts regarding a lactogogue tea in South 
Africa.
Rooibos Tea is not a galatogogue tea but is drunk frequently by most South 
Africans.  It is recommended to mothers as it does not contain caffeine or 
tannin.

Fenugreek tablets seem to be the most popular galactogogue suggestd by the 
doctors I work with, they presecribe 3 tablets every 8 hours.  However some 
women have told me that Fenugreek tea has also helped their milk supply.  I 
do not have experience with the tea but have seen results from the 
Fenugreek tablets.
