Does eating cabbage during breastfeeding cause milk suppression?

Patient's question:

I am a 23-year-old woman, and I have been breastfeeding my child ever since they were born. Therefore, I would like to know if eating cabbage can help with weaning during lactation.

Doctor's answer:

Breastfeeding is perfectly fine with cabbage. Cabbage is a common green vegetable in daily life, and its nutritional value can promptly provide for both the pregnant mother and the fetus. Although what causes milk suppression varies from person to person, it is rare for cabbage to trigger milk suppression during the postpartum period. It is recommended that you maintain a regular routine, eat light and soft foods, and drink plenty of warm water. I hope my explanation helps you!
