Home Forums Induced Lactation aka Adoptive Breastfeeding Medical Interventions to Induce Lactation/Increase Milk Supply safe dose to up dom to

thinking to up my dom and from the 2x20 4xday. just wondering what the next up increase should be. is 3x20 4xday too much? how have others increased?

sorry i just realized i have my numbers wrong. it's 2x10 4xday and i just read through the info on the site and it says the 3x10 4xday is the max.

I increased to 120 mg a day (30 mg 4 times a day). That worked well for me.

I have read the maximum is 160 mg a day (40 mg 4 times a day).

Hi Ladies,

I have been taking BCP and dom for 3 weeks now (20mg 4x a day )
I don't seem to be experiencing a great change in my breast size, is this supposed to happen? I have the usual symptoms ie nausea, headaches and some stabbing pains in my boobs....

any advice would be greatly appreciated...
thanks
Angie

I didn't see any breast size increase until I started pumping. I didn't see it when I was pregnant either. I did great on the protocol and had a full supply for my two daughters we adopted.

I wouldn't increase the dom until you start pumping, and only if you aren't producing well after a few weeks.
