Chinese medicine for breast milk deficiency Breastfeeding is the most natural and safest way to nurse, and the majority of mothers want to feed their children themselves. However, in modern society, the problem of insufficient milk is very common, and Chinese medicine has better results in preventing and regulating insufficient milk, so here are some brief introductions. Factors related to lactation: development of mammary glands, maternal nutrition, prolactin level, baby’s sucking, breastfeeding method, nipple health, etc. According to TCM, abundant maternal qi and blood is the key to sufficient milk, and women’s sufficient qi and blood are not supplemented until after delivery. Sometimes, poor lactation after delivery is related to nutritional disorders during pregnancy and before pregnancy, not simply to nutrition after delivery. Therefore, all women, before pregnancy, should adjust their nutritional balance to make sufficient qi and blood in order to lay the foundation for smooth breastfeeding in the future. Prenatal conditioning has been a part of Chinese eugenics since ancient times. If no attention is paid to the pre-conception and pre-pregnancy supplements, the treatment of Chinese medicine should be used as early as possible after delivery, with better results in promoting lactation about 3 weeks after delivery, and decreasing efficacy afterwards. Insufficient milk is more common in women who have had a broken birth than in those who have had a normal birth because they have not experienced a bout of pain. Therefore, it is also an active preventive method to go to a TCM breast specialist clinic about a month before the expected date of delivery to prepare a dietary herbal remedy for lactation. In the treatment of postpartum breast deficiency, TCM mainly considers the deficiency of Qi and blood and the lack of Qi and blood, and the treatment is adjusted according to the individual’s constitution. If the mother has a weak spleen and stomach and is trapped by dampness, she should not take too many supplements and pay attention to regulating the function of the spleen and stomach; if the mother has a deficiency of Qi and blood and has a large amount of postpartum bleeding, she should pay attention to astringency to stop the bleeding. Food therapy is a folk favorite method to ensure postpartum milk, such as peanut pig’s foot soup, octopus papaya peanut soup, carp soup, etc. You can also drink milk.
