I have started the protocol for Induced Lactation (
http://www.asklenore.info/index.html). It's been two weeks at the reccomended dosage of Motillium. I can tell things are happening now after only a short time. I've noticed swelling in my breasts and at times they ache a lot. A sure sign it must be working. According to the web site, it should take a few more weeks to be ready to lactate. So far things are looking good.
Yesterday I noticed a very small, clear drop from my right nipple.

I always wanted breasts, with lactation, since I was going into puberty... but it will not happen now

I wish I was young once more.

What a difference a day makes. I reported only having a drop of fluid the other day. Last night I felt a cooling effect on my breast. It was as if you were to put water on your skin and have air move across it. For whatever reason I squeezed one slightly and behold there was milk from 3 small ducts on each nipple. Although not much was produced (about a teaspoon for each side) it was definately milk non the less. Wow

At first I was not willing to accept my fate but after living in a house with 3 other woman and my current set of circumstance, I had no other choice but to grow up female. my breast did not form strait away I was about 16 before the buds on my chest developed into a real set of breast. Neither my mom or sisters have large breast, my oldest sister is the largest a "C" cup. I barley fill a "B" cup and I am 25. were was I ? oh ya when my breast finaly started growing by about 17 or so I had a few days when my nipples leaked milky fluid. My mom said it was just my hormones doin there thing. I never gave a second thought until I had my nipples pierced several years back during the healing process the milky fluid returned for several days, not sure about that one but I was able to sqeeze milk out, it had a nasty tatse..... :tongueout

Christina, congratulations on beginning lactation! As a male with gynomastia induced by medication required for a health problem I love my breasts, but it never occurred to me that lactation might be possible. Please keep us posted on your progress. Your an inspiration for all men like me who wish they were women.

It's been over 4 weeks now and still lactating. Although I haven't followed the protocol for lactation to the letter, I still produce a fair amout of milk (quantity would increase if I lowered my HRT and added several herbs).
Several days ago I stopped the Motilium, but continue to lactate. I'll see how long it goes before I dry up (high levels of estrogens are not good for milk production). I'm going take a break from the induced lactation for a month or so to gather some of the other things needed for proper (herbs and a breast pump).
I'm looking into buying, or renting, a medical grade dual electric breast pump. A hand pump is just not up to starting the lactation process. The model I am looking at is reccomended for women who have premature babies and can not breast feed.

I've also found out there is a donor program for women to give breast milk (although I may not be a good canidate for donations). Digging through the site I've also found that breast milk may have benefits for cancer patients. More on this as I gather more information.
