Abstract :
Breastfeeding gives children the best start in life. It is estimated that over one million children die each year from diarrhoea, respiratory and other infections because they are not adequately breastfed.Lactation is influenced by a complex hormonal milieu, including reproductive hormones and metabolic hormones. Lactation failure can have dire consequences on nutritional status of young infants. The present study was carried out to find the demographic and clinical profile of infants whose mothers had lactation failure.
