Which is the most effective allergy testing and treatment option for breastfeeding mother?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy testing: You can have a skin test done at a board certified allergist office for best results, it will not get into the breast milk or affect the baby. The allergist will then discuss safe options while you are breast feeding.
