Goats Rue after 4 months

[speedmum]

For those who have used Goats Rue, how long does it take for it to make a difference? The thing to note is I am taking for the first time 4 months after delivering. Plus, I have not been actively nursing or expressing. I was doing it sporadically once or twice a day. Now since taking the herbs I am trying to nurse/express every 3-4 hours. I am only not expressing during the night.

The reason I am taking Goats Rue is to address one of the following that I may have.
IGT (Left side is SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than right)
PCOS (History of irregular AF)
Thyroid (Weight is not budging and hair fall)

It might be one or a combination.
Just wanting to hear from those who have tried Goats Rue and their success with it?
What changes did you see in terms of the following:

Milk output
physical changes to breast
weight
AF
Blood sugar, headaches

I just started taking it myself, in hopes of relactating (that along with More Milk Plus and other things).

I don't notice any side effects YET. But I have read many places it takes 2-3 weeks for a woman to notice any kind of difference.

Hope to see others replies, as I am curious as well.

Can you get your thyroid checked? That can seriously hinder milk supply and just getting that under control can help.

yes that is definitely the plan for this week.
however, I have started on GR and a bunch of other galactalougues.

what is the typical remedy for getting thyroid fixed?
if a problem is detected, then can I take medication and still BF little one?
what medication is typically prescribed? just so I know what to expect?
