Patient's question:
My baby has been nursing for over twenty days, but there isn't enough milk. What should I do? Please help me think of a solution. I haven't treated this before, and I really need your help to ensure my baby gets enough milk.Doctor's answer:
Insufficient milk supply can be supplemented with formula feeding. The baby can consume formula after breastfeeding, which maximizes the nutrition needed by the baby and also helps the mother increase milk production. Additionally, it is possible that postpartum qi and blood deficiency is causing the insufficient milk supply, in which case medical treatment and dietary therapy may be necessary for effective results.
