However I have heard about TG-Lactation. Basically I would like to Breast feed my baby. As I feel this is an important part of the mother/child "bonding cycle", and is something both and and my partner are serious in persuing.
Do you now how I should start lactation? I Have at various times had a some Milk, but nothing very significant (i'd say a few tea spoons at most). I have a good size "Natural Hormone Breasts" 36C (no implants). Is there any additional hormones I should take (I heard Pro-Lactin produces milk), do they have that in tablet form. Any advise you can give on this issue would be greatly appreciated!
I believe that discussing dosages is against forum rules, but I don't believe it's against forum rules to give drug names, and vague advice.
You should look into motilium, many genetic females use this drug to increase breast milk supply. Saw Palmetto and Fenugreek are herbals that are said to increse breast milk production (and size), but probably do not do so significantly.
I can persanally confirm the effectiveness of motilium, I once used it in with the (misguided and stupid) belief that it would increase my natural breast size, but it was certainly effective at incresing milk production, that is about all it's effective at.
In any case, please consider consulting a doctor about this, it could be bad for your baby's health to breastfeed from a MTF who is taking hormones and antiandrogens and other drugs.

I am considering Implants in the fairly near future - Would having implants affect the "Lactation Process in my breasts".
From what I have heard it probably would, but I am no expert in this sense.
