Agreed. And yes, fenugreek would make this worse. Shatavari might not. From my own research fenugreek and shatavari actually don't do the exact same thing. They end up with pretty much the same results for SOME, but fenugreek achieves them by stimulating prolactin, shatavari by directly stimulating the ductal tissue on its own. In my case, the prolactin stimulation from fenugreek just gave me swelling and nothing else. Haven't tried shatavari yet.
