Subject: Birth control pills/decreased milk supply


I've had 2 calls today from Mom's whose docs put them on birth control pills.  The first is taking the mini pill(progesterone only) and has noticed a dramatic lowering of her milk supply.  The second mom's doc prescribed the double whammy(progesterone & estrogen).  She's taken only 1 pill and will call tomorrow to get the Rx changed.  My question to the list is:  Has anyone used and had luck with herbs to increase milk supply when a mom is on birth control?  
TIA
