Hi! Am new to lactnet (have been lurking off & on for @ 20 mos) I am a CLC
working towards IBCLC and for the past 20 months have been employed by an
IBCLC in private practice. That said...
Isnt the concern w/endometriosis that of controling her cycles-it was when I
had it. That being the case why not progestin only pills which prevent any
menses and to my knowledge arent contra-indicated to BF??
Secondly after my laparoscopy for the same I was put on a medication delivered
nasally (am unsure of the name but one of the good Doc's out ther may know) it
was not contra-indicated either.
Thirdly there are herbals that helped me with symptoms -one of which is also a
galctogogue-Fennel. also Tarragon helped with symptoms however I am unsure of
its compatability with BF or progestin pills as it is an emmenagogue. If you
have ?'s on the dosages I used or the books I referenced please E-mail me
privately at [log in to unmask]
Hope this helps
