What an inspiration you are for woman wannabes like myself! When I look t my breasts -- not neglible, the result of medication taken for non-gender identity reasons -- I dream of lactation. Question: when you contacted Inducted Lactation did you expain that you were formerly a guy before becoming a woman, and if so, how did they take it?

To answer your question, yes, I did explain fully my situation to the webmaster and she was quite helpful in her reply to me. Here is part of her reply she gave....

"......It may be possible for you to breastfeed as well. This would involve the use of additional medication, domperidone specifically. And you would need to obtain a good breastpump with a double set up such as the Medela Pump in Style........."

While I did not follow the protocol exactly, what results I did have were just amazing to say the least. I am certain, that by following these guidelines closer, I will produce and maintain a good supply of breast milk. Once I have all the things at hand (mainly the breastpump) I will start the protocol again.

Footnote: Domperidone is the generic name for Motilium mentioned in previous posts.

I do have a freind who just had a baby, but I don't know her well enough to ask. It's a lovely thought though.
