Does eating chive greens during breastfeeding cause milk suppression?

Patient's question:

I am currently breastfeeding. Today, I ate a lot of chives. Please ask if eating chive leaves during breastfeeding can cause milk suppression? What should I do if I experience milk suppression?

Doctor's answer:

Whether will return to milk needs to be observed in the future. There is no milk-letting recipe in the milk-letting methods. Western medicine's milk-letting methods are related to diet, that is, barley malt tea is a commonly used milk-letting method, and the rest are drugs. Therefore, we should milk-let, eat less protein food, drink less soup, and all of these promote milk secretion. Among the foods that promote milk secretion, eating less may also be beneficial to milk reflux, that is, eating less loofah, daylily, soy, and other foods during milk reflux.
