Patient's question:
Recently, my best friend just had a baby, and her milk supply is particularly abundant. Will it naturally decrease if she doesn't breastfeed?Doctor's answer:
Postpartum requires breastfeeding to prevent blocked milk ducts and the occurrence of breast hyperplasia. Breastfeeding can reduce the incidence of breast cancer. Currently, it is essential to empty the milk, and the immune factors in breast milk cannot be replaced by formula. It is best to prioritize breastfeeding. Girls who are breastfed have a lower chance of developing breast cancer later in life compared to those who were not breastfed.
