Dandelion in water has a certain effect on lactation, but the water taken with limited precipitation of active ingredients, the efficacy is not as good as traditional Chinese medicine after concocting and standardized decoction, for the treatment of the disease may not be good.
Dandelion is the dried herb of dandelion or several species of plants of the same genus in the family of Asteraceae, which is effective in clearing away heat and removing toxins, subduing swellings and dissipating lumps, and diuretic and diaphoretic (to improve the problem of dribbling in the urine, and the problem of small amount and inability to pass urine). It can be used to treat carbuncles and boils, canker sores (red, swollen and painful breasts with poor milk discharge, eventually forming a purulent disease), scrofula (mainly refers to tuberculosis of the lymph nodes in the neck) and other conditions.
Dandelion can treat carbuncles and boils, so it has a certain effect on lactation. However, due to the limited precipitation of active ingredients in dandelion water, the efficacy is not as good as that of traditional Chinese medicine after concocting and standardized decoction, and the therapeutic effect on the disease may not be good.
It should be noted that too much dandelion can lead to diarrhea.
In addition, it is recommended to seek medical advice in a timely manner after the onset of discomfort, and to have a Chinese medicine practitioner identify and treat the illness and administer the medication accordingly, rather than self-medicating, so as not to cause delay in the treatment of the illness.
