Hi Channie! It is important to seek your Chinese Physician for their advice, when you are prescribed Chinese herbs for any medical condition while you are breastfeeding. For example, Madam Partum confinement herbal products are formulated specially to support breastfeeding that you consume during your confinement period and you can actually breastfeed directly after consuming the herbal soup. It is safe to consume ginseng during breastfeeding as ginseng boost Qi for new mothers. Qi is one of the primary factors in boosting breast milk supply. - Yen and Judy 💕
