Understanding Low Milk Supply for New Mothers - Reasons Found for Reduced Supply of Breast Milk
A new international study led by La Trobe University researchers, and published in Plos One, has revealed the reasons why some new mothers produce less breast milk than others. The survey of almost 500 women in Australia, the US, and the UK, found that women with low milk supply often did not notice an increase in breast size during pregnancy; could have breast hypoplasia; or may have been overweight as a teenager.
