Patient's question:
Doctor, I am a young woman, 26 years old. After giving birth, my body is very weak, and sometimes I have lower back pain. My skin has become much rougher than before. I would like to ask if drinking tea frequently can cause milk to stop producing.Doctor's answer:
During lactation, it is best not to consume tea, especially strong tea, as it can reduce milk production and affect the quality of breast milk. Additionally, tannins in tea can hinder the body's absorption of proteins, minerals, and other nutrients. Besides caffeine, which is a strong stimulant and not good for the baby, these factors make tea unsuitable for breastfeeding mothers.Regarding this condition, patients should not only receive necessary treatment but also pay attention to self-care in their daily lives. Maintaining a healthy routine is essential to recover quickly from the illness.
