Is there any research that fenugreek can help increase milk supply?

[poshtottie]

I advised a client to take this as read about it in a very well respected breastfeeding book and here on mumnet. My mw friend questioned where there is any evidence that this can help.

I was told this by a Sri Lankan lady, apparently she was told to drink it by her mother, who was told to drink it by her own mother.

I don't know if it's psychosomatic, but every time I had a curry I was positively overflowing with milk

might this help?

thanks for the links. lots of reading to do.
