Herb suggestions?

#1

So after growing an inch from PM, Aguaje, Fennel and massage with my herb infused oil I am going to take a break from Fennel since all online research suggests it should not be taken in large amounts or for large periods of time without a break basically due to its effect on the nervous system, I am planning on taking a month or 2 break from fennel but keeping up on my PM and Aguaje and am wanting to add a third herb in replacement I was taking the fennel moreso for its galactagogue effect increasing prolactin etc any suggestions what to add with my PM and Aguaje? I cannot take anything that has possible mild sedative effects such as motherwort unfortunately, TIA! Smile Smile

Where did you read that fennel damages the nervous system? Do you have a link? Which component is the problem? If you want to try something else, fenugreek seems like the obvious choice, but you could also try goats rue.

Breastfeeding infants had damaged nervous system from their mother taking fennel

www.herbaleducation.net/fennel

"The essential oil if taken internally can overexcite the nervous system and cause convulsions in sensitive individuals" (ie myself whom already suffers with severe anxiety)


It also states  Avoid using fennel for long time periods or in large quantities

Ontop of which taken long term can increase your sensitivity to the sun and increase likelihood of sunburn (I am very fair)

I am not a fan of fenugreek as its hormonal affects in regards to research seem very conflicting also I dont like smelling like maple syrup lol I am looking into other galactagogue herbs though so maybe goats rue I will do my research thanks!

So after much research of a bunch of galactagogue herbs your suggestion of goats rue sounds very promising and I have ordered some to use with my PM and Aguaje while I take a break from Fennel!  Big Grin" alt="Big Grin" title="Big Grin"> TY
