How to promote lactation

Patient's question:

Baby has been born for exactly forty days. Before delivery, I coughed and took medication before labor. The baby was kept warm for a week before coming home, and then I started breastfeeding. However, I found that the breast milk was not enough, so I had to wean the baby! Now I want to rely on diet to increase milk production—is it possible?

Doctor's answer:

The above situation can be addressed by taking lactation-enhancing drugs for lactation treatment. Breastfeeding at the age of ten is scientifically the most nutritious and the healthiest food for babies. Compared to formula-fed babies, those fed with milk tend to grow and develop better, have stronger immunity, and possess a certain disease resistance. Medication can be used to adjust breast milk, or a mixed feeding method can be adopted to raise the baby.
