Patient's question:
Why do women produce some breast milk after giving birth? Because I am about to have a baby, so I want to consult a doctor here. How is breast milk formed?Doctor's answer:
The function of a woman's breasts is to produce milk, maintain milk flow, and support breastfeeding. Milk is secreted by alveolar cells in the mammary glands. Therefore, after giving birth, if breastfeeding, it is recommended to consume more soup-based foods. You can eat chicken soup, carp soup, or pig trotter soup, as these can effectively help increase milk production. Additionally, it is important to eat a variety of nutritious foods.
