  • Indigestion
  • Asthma
  • Bronchitis
  • Inflammation and swelling (ground and used topically)
  • Low milk production in lactating women
  • Loss of appetite
  • Breast Enlargement
Avoid taking fenugreek if you are pregnant. Before taking this or any other herbal preparation, see your medical practitioner.
