DedPeter [7]3 years ago

Answer: C. Prolactin

Prolactin is a hormone that controls milk production together with oxytocin. The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes prolactin and the posterior lobe secretes oxytocin when a baby suckles at the breast. The level of prolactin in the blood slowly increases during pregnancy, and stimulates the growth and development of the mammary tissue, in preparation for the production of milk after delivery.

Moreover, Prolactin is in the highest level in about 30 minutes after the beginning of the feed, which is most important for producing milk for the next feed.

  • A lower risk of type 2 diabetes is associated with moderate alcohol usage, as opposed to abstinence and heavy drinking.
  • Despite the fact that both males and women's risks are decreased with moderate alcohol use, the associations between the two may be different.
