Abstract
Twenty-one puerperal women were divided into two groups, those with high (4 L/day) and those with low (800 mL/day) fluid intake. Basal and post-suckling serum prolactin levels and the production rate of breast milk were similar in each group. Osmotic influences on prolactin secretion appear to be unimportant in human physiology, and there is no basis for prescribing changes in fluid intake for the control of human lactation.Entities:
