Dear lactnetters.

   I have done a good deal of research on herbs but can't find enough
specifics
on fenugreek used in lactation. Would like to add to that research. Do you
mind answering a few questions for me? I will give credit where it is due.
Please email me with these answers. I am sending  this through a friends
computer as mine is being stubborn. Thanks in advance for your help. Mechell

Note: Moms must have Fenugreek only as the galactagogue for  herself for low
milk supply or induction or re-lactation.  Thanks
