A. yes it can it is always better to take help from your lactation expert who will recommend you various methods for improvement. It is completely related to hormones and the signal sent to the brain so it is very important to stay positively motivated.medicines are not of much help.if there is pain you can apply cold press locally and take Dolo tablet which is safe.

A. Hi See if you continue feeding formula feeding over a breastfeeding more then of course the breastfeeding is going to dry up and reduced over the period so if you want you should probably stick to breastfeeding more if you want to continue with it
