Does drinking more water also increase milk production?

Patient's question:

Breastfeeding and drinking more water, how does it affect milk production? I haven't learned about this before and would like to understand it. I've tried many methods, but nothing has worked.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to help you with your question: During breastfeeding, in addition to drinking plenty of water, you should also drink more soups, such as pork rib soup, and eat more greasy foods like pork trotter soup, crucian carp thick soup, soups cooked with lard and vegetables, chicken soup, etc. This will help increase milk production and improve the quality of the milk. Also, remember to let the baby suckle the nipple more often, as this will also help increase milk production. For specific advice, it is recommended to consult a professional. I hope my response is helpful to you.
