Can you still breastfeed after weaning?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am a young woman, 25 years old. My milk has been getting less and less every day. Can I still produce milk after weaning?

Doctor's answer:

It is possible to relactate after weaning, but the process requires stimulating milk production through prolonged nipple stimulation by the baby. During the process, whether milk is released during sucking, the baby needs to persistently suck to empty the breasts daily. Additionally, consuming foods that promote milk production, such as soups, is beneficial. For this condition, in addition to necessary treatment, patients should also pay attention to self-care in their daily lives, ensuring a healthy routine, to recover as quickly as possible.
