Pumping more has been the only way for me to boost supply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1320297 Sun, 05 Jan 2014 02:42:39 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1320297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I finished almost a whole giant bottle and never smelled like maple syrup! I kept taking it cause of that actually. I did notice more milk though :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1319171 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 11:19:31 +0000 Bookish 1319171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took 2 pills 2x a day and smelled sooo gross! It didn't work at all for me, unfortunately, so I hope you have more luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1319146 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 10:55:42 +0000 daniellemybelle 1319146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, maple syrup smell. You can take more than the bottle says. It is often more effective in combination with other herbs like blessed thistle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1319120 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 10:33:36 +0000 Turd Ferguson 1319120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take 2 pills 3-4 times a day. If you smell like maple syrup, it's enough! I take it combined with Domperidone, so I'm not sure how much is attributed to just the Fenugreek. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1318937 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 07:07:17 +0000 katsupgirl 1318937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me it started working on the second day into the third. As soon as I started to smell like maple syrup is when I also noticed an increase. The stronger the odor the more its working maybe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fenugreek-1#post-1318904 Sat, 04 Jan 2014 05:46:27 +0000 illumina 1318904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My health visitor has recommended I take fenugreek to boost my supply. I've started taking 2x 600mg capsules with each meal (the bottle says 1-2 capsules). If you took it, how did you know it was/wasn't working? Also how much did you take and how long for? </p>
