Abstract:
Low breast milk production is a common but often multifactorial challenge that can significantly impact maternal and infant health. This presentation examines the wide range of potential contributors to lactation difficulties, with particular attention to hormonal influences. Where do we look when poor breast stimulation has been ruled out or corrected and milk supply is still not increasing? Learn more about the multiple hormonal issues that can impact milk production. We will also explore the different types of breast hypoplasia, beyond just abnormal development during puberty. Participants will expand their knowledge of the varied causes of low milk production allowing for more nuanced differential diagnosis and appropriate clinical management or referral.
