Taking galact for long time

2022-06-22 03:43:07
I had low breastmilk after delivery, so i started to talk galact powder 3 times a day as suggested by doctor. My baby is 1 year old, and I am still taking galact. I think due to this, my weight is increased very much, i have gained around 10 kgs. Is taking galact for ao long harmful for the mother and baby? Shall i stop it?
