Question about fenugreek

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I need a quick answer for a fellow employee. She is nursing her 9month old and got mastitis. They put her on antibiotics and her supply has tanked. She is taking fenugreek and eating oatmeal but it isn't helping.

So for my question. Two of them actually. I know there is something if taken with fenugreek is better than just fenugreek is it blessed thistle?

Second question is could her antibiotic be making her supply drop?

Thank for anyone who can help me help her!

Yes, fenugreek is often taken in conjunction with blessed thistle. Shatavari is something else she can try.

No idea about the antibiotic, sorry!

Thanks so much! I thought I would add that the antibiotic she is on is Keflex in case that makes a difference.
