Does eating durian during lactation increase or decrease milk production?

Patient's question:

It has been twelve days since giving birth, and I have been sweating a lot. Is there any method to reduce sweating without affecting breastfeeding? What foods should postpartum women avoid? Thank you. I haven't been treated yet. I want to know if eating durian during breastfeeding promotes or reduces milk production?

Doctor's answer:

Durian is a type of food that is very rich in nutrition and is known as the king of fruits. It can also appropriately supplement the body's heat and energy, so it's not a problem to eat some durian during breastfeeding. It will not affect breastfeeding and will not cause milk to decrease. At the same time, if you stew chicken with the durian shell, it is very nutritious and has a lactogenic effect. However, durian is a relatively nourishing fruit. For some women with a slightly weaker constitution, eating too much durian can easily lead to internal heat, so it is still necessary to take it in moderation and not eat too much.
