Can I eat eggs when my milk is increasing?

Patient's question:

My wife's milk supply is very high right now, but our baby can't finish it, so we often need to use a breast pump. Tonight we're eating eggs. I wanted to ask if it's okay to eat eggs when your milk supply is high?

Doctor's answer:

It should be okay to eat eggs, but avoid greasy foods. Do not eat raw, cold, spicy, or irritating foods. If you have a lot of milk, it is best to eat light and diet.
It is recommended to maintain good lifestyle habits and keep a positive mood. You can use a breast pump to express milk appropriately, as this can easily lead to mastitis or other issues. If you have too much milk, you need to express it or use a breast pump to avoid breast lumps. If the breast engorgement is severe, it may even lead to fever. Pay attention to a light diet.
