Inducing Lactation for Adoption, Surrogacy & LGBTQ+ Families

You Don't Have to Give Birth to Breastfeed

Did you know you can breastfeed — or provide breastmilk — for your baby even if you adopt or have a gestational carrier? Lactation induction makes it possible for many parents to experience the nutritional and emotional benefits of breastfeeding, regardless of how their family was formed.

At Ella & Allo, Dr. Christina Thuet offers compassionate, personalized support for families seeking to induce lactation, including adoptive, surrogacy, and LGBTQ+ families. You deserve the same opportunity to nourish and bond with your baby — and we’re here to help you get there.

Your consultation will cover:

  • Your medical history, medications, and hormonal considerations
  • Your goals, timeline, and prior breastfeeding or chestfeeding history, if applicable
  • Realistic expectations and anticipated challenges
  • Dr. Thuet’s assessment of the likelihood of achieving partial or full milk production
  • Individualized protocol recommendations, when appropriate

This initial consultation is focused on evaluation and education. If both you and Dr. Thuet agree that lactation induction is an appropriate next step, initiation and ongoing management of your protocol will begin after your consultation is complete.
