Patient's question:
I've always been quite curious, because I'm about to have a child as well, and I wanted to ask where breast milk comes from?Doctor's answer:
The function of a woman's breasts is to produce milk, maintain milk discharge, and support breastfeeding. Milk is secreted by alveolar cells in the mammary glands. Therefore, after giving birth, if breastfeeding, it is recommended to consume more soupy foods. You can eat chicken soup, crucian carp soup, or pig trotter soup, as these can effectively help increase milk production. Additionally, it is important to eat a variety of nutritious foods.
