Hi all,
I am 10 weeks pp and unfortunately have had low milk supply from the get-go. I have worked with a fantastic lactation consultant and have tried every trick in the book from power pumping to supplements. The only thing that seems to increase my supply is taking domperidone (motilium) and I notice an almost instant drop in my supply when I stop taking it.
Because domperidone works by increasing prolactin levels, I am assuming that this might mean I have naturally low prolactin levels. I have booked a blood test to determine this,
Has anyone else had confirmed low prolactin associated with low milk supply? Has anything helped with this?
I also have unexplained infertility and could only conceive via IVF - could this be connected?
I've also struggled with consistent low libido for years 😔
Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciate.
Thank you!
