girls boobs milk - #18314
I recently heard that some women can produce milk even when they are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and I want to understand why this happens. I want to know whether Ayurveda has any natural explanations or treatments for unexpected lactation and what it indicates about hormonal balance. From what I read, breast milk production is regulated by the hormone prolactin, which increases during pregnancy and after childbirth to stimulate lactation. However, in some cases, non-pregnant women may experience milk discharge, a condition known as galactorrhea. This can be caused by hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, high stress, or certain medications. I have been experiencing occasional breast tenderness and mild discharge, and I am concerned about whether this could indicate a hormonal disorder. Could excess prolactin production be linked to a Pitta or Vata imbalance in Ayurveda? How does Ayurveda explain unexpected lactation and hormonal irregularities? Additionally, I want to know whether diet and lifestyle factors can influence milk production in non-pregnant women. I consume a lot of dairy and soy-based foods, and I read that these can affect estrogen levels—could this be a contributing factor? Does Ayurveda recommend specific herbs, foods, or detox therapies to naturally balance prolactin and prevent unexpected milk production? I have heard that Shatavari, Ashwagandha, and Triphala are beneficial for hormonal balance—would these help in regulating prolactin levels naturally? Are there any Ayurvedic treatments or lifestyle modifications that can support women’s hormonal health and prevent irregular lactation? Since I want to avoid synthetic hormone treatments, I am looking for Ayurvedic approaches to naturally balance hormones and support breast health. Please provide detailed Ayurvedic insights on why girls’ boobs produce milk when not pregnant, its causes, and how to manage it naturally through diet, herbs, and Ayurvedic therapies.
