Breast Feeding, Milk Supply Reduced, Hypothyroid Diagnosed. What Is The Cause And Possible Cure?
I am breastfeeding my 7 weeks old daughter. All of s sudden my milk supply has gone down drastically. I am a thyroid (hypo) patient taking 125 mg thyrox. I got TSH done again today and it is now 0.09 I have following questions: 1. Has milk supply gone down because of low TSH? 2. How much thyrox should I take now? 3. In how many days of revised thyrox dosage will my milk supply become normal? thanks

Apart from TSH to return to normal you can start Taking Metoclopromide tablet which will increase milk. Kindly let me know the T3 and T4 level.
Take care
