Melktogen Chewable Tablet (Vanilla) Review

Piggy will be turning 11 months old in a few more days and my breastfeeding journey didn't get any better. I am still breastfeeding Piggy whenever I am home but my milk supply started shrinking very badly after my 1st mentrual period returned 2 months back, so bad that it used to be 20-25oz per day, reduced to only 8 or 10oz per day... Piggy also had no choice but to be introduced to formula at the age of 10 months old. When hormones messes with your body, you must know what you eat can only help a little. Like all other breastfeeding mom, we find ways to improve milk supply. There's where I source for this Melktogen with a lot of positive reviews. I had also tried MaMom Chewable Tablets from Herbaworks (click link to view review), but it doesn't work for me... T_T
Melktogen Chewable Tablet (Vanilla) Review


The tablet came in a plastic container, containing 40pcs of tablets, which can last from 10 to 20 days depends on how many tablets you are consuming daily. The tablets is in a very light beige color and has a very strong milk scents. It tasted like milk candy and it is very sweet. Easily dissolve when chewed...

Below is the ingredient list on the box with nutrition facts, direction and storage methods.

The direction is kinda weak as it only mentioned chewed two times daily and the tablet should be taken before breakfast and dinner. It didn't mention how many tablets, so I assume to take 2 tablets, 2 times a day (total 4 tablets a day) so this bottle can only last me for 10 days. It is also mentioned to store in a cool and dry place.


Expiry date is clearly stamped on the box alone and it is not written anywhere on the bottle.

Review:
Taste/Texture/Result: The tablet has a strong milk scent. It is also tasted like milk tablet candy. I gently chew the tablets using my front teeth as it will stuck to my molars if I chew it using my molars. It is slightly soluble once in contact with saliva but I prefer chewing as it is faster and I don't like sucking on sweets. When eaten, it is less powdery texture (compared to MaMom Chewable Tablets from Herbaworks ) and it tasted milky and sweet. As the result, after trying for 5 days in a row, taken 2 tablets every morning before breakfast and before dinner (and 30 min before meal), drank at least 2 litre of water, sadly I didn't see a lot of improvements, maybe a very very slight increase (around 0.5-1oz per day out of 2 pumps added together)... Really sad that this too is not my milk booster, but it seems like it works as a milk booster for other moms.  Well, not my luck as I already tried. Time to source for another milk booster~~
