Abstract

Breast milk is exclusive and unique for both mother and child. It is most effective way to encourage baby’s development in all kinds of natural and positive health methods. It is seen thatlactational insufficiency is renewed in the mother due to anxiety, lack of motivation, support and also lack of knowledge about proper techniques of breast feeding. It leads to introduction of top feeding, ultimately resulting in partial and complete abandonment of lactogenesis. So, breastfeeding is a emotional, hormonal, physical and nutritional phenomenon affected by every component. So, a good participation effort should be made to prevent it by motivation, nutritious diet, prenatal breastfeeding techniques education and use of herbal galactagogue. There are Ayurveda mentioned both internal balance and external control about management of lactation deficiency.
