Hi all, have tried googling and checking here but confused and no wiser. When I started NB about six weeks ago I had like many of us one breast smaller than the other (the left). Now six weeks on without pumping individually but perservering with both, the left has caught up - good. However I am now lactating in that left breast, I don't think this can be good? I am 34, have had one pregnancy and am taking breast actives daily by 3 and fenugreek 620mg x 3 daily along with msm and basic multi vitamins. Has anyone any advise on if I need to stop something maybe even the NB for a bit? I can't really get my head around the relationship between prolactin, lactating and if it's good or bad for breast growth. Finally I don't think it's helpful that the nipple in the smaller breast is being more pulled than the larger in the cups but all attempts to protect it, tape it down comes undone with the sunction. Any advise would be so appreciated and apologies if I'm bordering on graphic/gross
