Lactation is the physiological process of milk production and secretion from the mammary glands in response to hormonal signals, primarily following childbirth. This process not only provides essential nutrients and antibodies to the infant but also supports the physical and emotional bonding between mother and child. The nutritional quality and composition of breast milk can significantly influence infant growth, development, and health outcomes during early life.
