CONCEPT OF OLIGOGALACTIA AND ITS MANAGEMENT IN UNANI SYSTEM OF MEDICINE – A REVIEW
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Breast-feeding may be considered an ancient yet modern phenomenon. Despite trends toward bottle feeding in the 1950s and 1960s, the value of breast feeding is being rediscovered, because it is nutritionally ideal and now fashionable to connect pregnancy and the puerperium with being as "natural" as possible. Nursing normally begins shortly after delivery. This enhances the mother-infant relationship in terms of bonding, and it also stimulates mature milk production. The duration of the nursing period is widely variable, even within cultures. The prevalence of oligogalactia is 45% to 53.6% in India and is increasing nowadays. The pathogenesis of this disease remain still unclear. As for unani system of medicine is concerned Ibne Sina has described that qilatul laban developed either because of Sue Mizaj(ill temperament) or dominance of heat in the breast.
