Dear Sir/Madam,

I have been breastfeeding my baby and top feeding it with the formula Lactogen (as advised by my paediatrician) since it was born since I do not have adequate breast milk. Ever since I started breastfeeding my baby, I noticed that it always used to cry heavily. My paediatrician thus suggested that I add Lactogen in addition to providing breast milk. My paediatrician also recommended Lactare, Mama Protinex and Lactonic granules for improved lactation. I consumed these for just two weeks and then stopped because I found them too expensive. I also tried natural remedies like drinking garlic mixed with milk, fenugreek and beetroot juice. But nothing is helping me to increase my breast milk production.

In addition, I suffer from perennial allergic rhinitis (dustmite allergy and allergy to cold drinks, milk and artificial food and drinks). Since I'm highly allergic to milk, I have to avoid it. I am now taking soymilk, oatmilk and almond milk. However, my breast milk is just not adequate. My baby is now three months old. It consumes my breastmilk only for about a minute now and then it starts to cry heavily.

I really wish to provide breastmilk only and avoid formula feed for my baby. Please help me by suggesting how I can increase my breastmilk production.
