Patient's question:
It has been more than two months since I stopped breastfeeding. My child has been drinking only breast milk, but recently I feel like my milk supply is a bit insufficient, and the child is not getting full enough. I want to ask if eating winter melon can cause a decrease in milk supply?Doctor's answer:
Hello, eating winter melon will not cause milk to stop. Winter melon is rich in water, which is good for the endocrine system. It is recommended to eat it in moderation. After giving birth, you should protect your waist well, pay attention to the hygiene of your lower body, avoid sharing the room too early, exercise more, rest more, adjust your work, rest well, do not stay up late, drink less alcohol, and pay attention to the hygiene of your breast area to prevent bacteria from breeding. Rest more during breastfeeding.
