yes There are pills that are prescribed by a doctor. I read about it a magazine about 5 years ago. Talk to your doctor. Check about side effects before use, and consider the risk. I would imagine one of the side effects is reduced menstrual cycle, breast tenderness, etc.

I think i seen on TV before women could take a certain pill that makes you lactate. You prolly have to go to a doctor to get it.......

Placing gentle suction on the breast over a long period should create breast milk.

The mother should get the Vitamin D, calcium and magnesium she needs, regularly.

It is possible, here's a good article. http://www.llli.org/FAQ/adopt.html
Some are succesful, others are not.
