Has anyone had success with alfalfa? I take fenugreek, blessed thistle, goats rue and domperidone. Just wondering if alfalfa would also help.

I'm taking all the herbs you listed, except blessed thistle (didn't notice anything from it so I stopped). I tried alfalfa and didn't notice any benefit so I stopped. It was another 12 pills/day and I really just couldn't deal with swallowing that many more on top of everything else for not much impact. Others think it helps though so I suppose it can't hurt to try.

My experience was different than the pp. I was taking fennugreek, plus a lactation tonic (with anise, fennel, blessed thistle...) and not seeing much increase. When I added the alfalfa, I noticed an increase the very next morning.
