Patient's question:
I have always been particularly curious about female milk secretion, because women who are not in the lactation period generally do not secrete milk, only during lactation will it be secreted, so I would like to ask how milk is secreted.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to answer your question for you: Milk is produced through hormonal and reflex actions. During pregnancy, hormonal changes in the body prepare the glandular tissue to produce milk. As the glandular tissue grows, the breasts gradually become larger. After childbirth, hormonal changes cause the breasts to begin producing milk. When the baby starts to suckle, two reflexes ensure that the right amount of milk is produced at the right time. Wishing you a happy life
