What are the good methods for postpartum galactorrhea?

Patient's question:

Hello everyone, I have a relative who has very little milk after giving birth. Could the experts please share any dietary methods to increase milk production? Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Some mothers limit the frequency of feeding or keep feeding sessions too short, which can reduce milk production. In fact, there is no need for a fixed schedule when breastfeeding; the baby can eat whenever they are hungry. The duration of each feeding session should also be determined by the baby. Sometimes, when the baby's mouth leaves the mother's nipple, it may just be a desire to rest for a moment or take a breath (nursing can be tiring—have you heard the phrase "exerting the strength of nursing"?), or it could be out of curiosity to observe the surroundings.
