[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How on earth could they differentiate?[/quote] I think the only way it could be a physical issue is if there was some kind of breast surgery, right? Anything else?[/quote] Another main cause is something called Insufficient Glandular Tissue usually caused by Tuberous/Tubular breast syndrome. 10% of women have this condition, and of that 10% most have IGT. I have it and was fortunate to have no issues with one breast (and in fact oversupply) but never really produced anything from the other. It is very much a medical reason, not psychological or social.[/quote] This is what I have, though I never was able to produce quite enough. I didn't know that it existed, and drove myself crazy trying to make nursing happen (supplemental feeding systems, pumping after every feed, illegally importing domperidone from overseas). It was awful for my mental health and possibly for my baby's physical health. [/quote]
