While using medications is a science, using herbs for increasing milk production doesn't seem quite as straightforward.  There are so many nuances to consider:  ​How do I know if a particular herb is helpful for me? What form of the herb should I take? ​What about using herbs in combination with domperidone? ​Can taking herbs alone boost my milk production?  Should I even try this? Alyssa discusses these tricky herb questions and more in this Ask Dr. Nice episode.

I first learned about Malunggay (a.k.a. Moringa) as an herb to help with milk production when I was writing Breastfeeding Without Birthing.  When Diana West, IBCLC, author of Making More Milk and internationally known expert on milk production, was reviewing a draft of my book she suggested adding this really helpful herb.  I'm so glad she did!  Since then, I've worked with countless nursing parents who have successfully used this herb  -  whether they are inducing lactation, relactating, or needing to support milk production for other reasons.  During this interview, I chatted with Angela Veloso of Sugarpod Naturals, maker of Go-Lacta malunggay.  She has a rich knowledge and appreciation for this helpful herb, and after listening to her we think you will too!   Read our full show notes at our website http://www.sweetpeabreastfeeding.com/podcast.html ​  

Dr. Nice is back, and he answers questions about the other half of the galactogogue equation:  herbs and foods that may be used to support milk production.  (Last time we interviewed Dr. Nice, we discussed pharmaceutical medications for increasing milk production.  Check out episode #32.)  We discuss whether to take herbs individually or in combination, whether to consume them in food or separately, and more.  We even get into the relationship between digestion and milk production, and how using galactagogues that support digestion can support milk production as well.  Don't miss this one! See more information on our show notes at: www.SweetPeaBreastfeeding.com/podcast.

Domperidone is a pharmaceutical medication that can help increase milk production.  In this interview, Frank Nice gives us the scoop on "dom".  He tells us who might benefit from domperidone and who shouldn't take it.  He tells us about common - and some not-so-common side effects.  We learn what dosage is ecommended, and how to safely and effectively discontinue using domperidone when the time comes.  And of course we discuss the big controversy around domperidone - why it is not currently FDA approved and where we are in the process of getting  it approved.  ​   Listen to Dr. Nice's interview:   Here are a few highlights from our interview: General dosage of domperidone is 10-20mg 4 times per day or 30mg 3 times per day.  Increasing the dosage can further increase milk supply, but dosages greater than 120mg per day rarely result in additional milk production (although a few mothers have found dosages up to 240mg per day are effective).  Although most mothers who will get a boost in milk production from domperidone notice a difference within a few days, it can take up to 4 weeks for domperidone to have an effect on milk production for some mothers. Although risk of cardiac arrythmia is stated by the FDA as a reason they have not approved domperidone, metoclopromide (aka Reglan) has the same very low level of risk and it is FDA approved. While domperidone is currently in orphan drug status in route to becoming FDA approved as a medication for breastfeeding mothers, there is also a push for FDA approval for domperidone as a treatment for gastroparesis and this may happen even sooner. Right now, we can expect to wait another 3-4 years before domperidone is FDA approved. ​     Not only is he a wealth of knowledge, Dr. Nice lives up to his name with a huge heart for mamas and babies.  We are thrilled to add this amazing interview to our podcast stream.  Find out more about Dr. Nice and his work at www.nicebreastfeeding.com      About Dr. NiceDr. Frank J.
