Brief Answer:
Need to consume loose and light foods

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

For managing fissures, we need to manage the constipation or bowel consistency.

The following can work:
- Milk, juice and ghee can like laxative and soften the stools naturally
- Apply Vaseline in and around the anal area
- Before passing stools, apply shield cream in the anal area to minimize the discomfort
- Drink cleaner water.

All these should help in management of anal fissure. You can also raise diet chart request from your dashboard and one of our dieticians will address your query.

Brief Answer:
Weight loss is not recommended during lactation

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Weight loss is not recommended during lactation. During lactation you should take enough food to have good and nutritious milk supply for your baby. I hope you have added solid foods for your baby.

The weight gain during lactation is due to the hormones needed to produce milk. Once you wean the baby to cow's milk, your lactation hormones will go down and weight will resume almost to before pregnancy levels. So it is a natural phenomenon and interference in the form of low diet is not recommended.
You may ask for diet chart for weight loss after this process is complete.

Have a happy and healthy lactation.

Regards,
Dr. Vaishalee
