Postpartum milk recovery means weaning and stop feeding. Generally, breastfeeding can be restored naturally as needed for 10 months to 2 years. Natural milk recovery is mainly through gradually reducing the number of breastfeeding times, extending the feeding interval, shortening the single feeding time, reducing the intake of milk-induced foods (high protein, soup, peanuts, pig's trotters, crucian carp , etc.), wearing tights, etc. If the milking is not done naturally, it can be done manually.
artificial milk recovery, based on natural milk recovery, helps to help milk recovery through maternal and infant lifestyle (reduce mother and infant in the same room, do not irritate nipple areola, do not feed), traditional Chinese medicine (dominant, external application, external treatment), Western medicine (oral or estrogen injection), lactator massage and other methods.
