Repeated milk duct blockages are believed to be treated with lecithin consumption. Consuming around 3600mg to 4800mg of lecithin per day or intake of 1 capsule of 1200 mg three to four times per day is commonly recommended for treating clogged milk ducts in breastfeeding women. Women who are breastfeeding can reduce the dosage by one capsule after a week or two when they observe no further blockage.
