very good question

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
1)Best stimulus for increasing breast milk is sucking at breast.It sends signals to brain which in turn responds by secreting oxytocin to increase breast milk.So do exclusive breast feeding
2)stress reduces milk output.So do antistess mechanics like yoga,meditation
3)Have complete balanced diet.Drink lots of fluid
4)most important is positive thinking
5)medicines like metoclopramide increase milk output
6) ayurvedic galactogauge like lactate,shatavarex taken daily increase milk output
Happy to help you
