PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Prolactin. Prolactin is necessary for the secretion of milk by the cells of the alveoli. The level of prolactin in the blood increases markedly during pregnancy, and stimulates the growth and development of the mammary tissue, in preparation for the production of milk (19).

Detailed explanation-2: -The hormone prolactin is responsible for milk production.

Detailed explanation-3: -After birth, prolactin is secreted every time your baby suckles or your breasts are pumped. Prolactin sends the message to your pituitary gland to continue making milk for your baby. The more you stimulate your breasts, the more prolactin will be released, and more milk you will produce.
