HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The lactogen would not cause her to get repeated infections. The infections would not be caused by any milk product she is using.
It is related to exposure to persons with similar infections. Young children have an impaired immune system, it is not strong enough to fight off most infections.
She now has to build up immunity.
The use of probiotics (in yogurt), multivitamins may help in her immune system.
I hope this helps
