What should a lactation consultant educate about breast size?

Breast size does not determine milk production because milk production is primarily regulated by the glandular tissue within the breast, rather than the overall size or volume. All women, regardless of breast size, have the ability to produce milk if they receive proper support and breastfeeding management. Factors that influence milk supply are more closely related to hormonal signals, frequency of breastfeeding or pumping, and the infant's demand, rather than the physical dimensions of the breast itself. This understanding helps caregivers support breastfeeding mothers without making assumptions based on breast size.
