Sebamed shampoo and conditioner is for kids right? Also the 20 ml would also be beneficial for the baby?
Its been 3 months since the delivery. She has a C - Section. Baby is on formula feed (Nan Pro).
What would you suggest to increase the breast milk supply doc?

Thank you for your response Doctor. But how many times should satavarex granules be taken in a day? My wife had sugar problems during her pregnancy, will having fenugreek in any way effect her health? Also can fenugreek be taken in the form of greens or herb?
