Abstract
Background
Breastfeeding is the main food for babies, proper breastfeeding is done in an exclusive way, namely giving without food or complementary drinks from newborns to 6 months of age. Plant extracts currently really need to be used as a companion to increase the volume of breast milk for working mothers to continue breastfeeding exclusively who require daily intake such as papaya leaf extract which contains calcium and laktogogum, vitamins that increase breast milk and prolactin hormone.
Objective
To determine the effectiveness of giving papaya leaf extract on breast milk volume and prolactin hormone levels in mothers who give exclusive breastfeeding.
Method
This research design uses Quasy Experiment with pre test - post test with control group design. The research sample consisted of 32 mothers divided into 2 groups, namely 16 interventions and 16 controls. The intervention was given 800 mg/day of papaya leaf extract, the control group was given a placebo, the intervention was carried out for 7 days. Data analysis saw changes and differences in breast milk volume and prolactin hormone levels using the Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney test.
Results
Giving papaya leaf extract increased prolactin hormone levels in the mother by 117.66mg/dl with a p-value of 0.005 and could increase the volume of breast milk by 229.667ml with a p-value of 0.000 for 7 days.
Conclusion
Giving papaya leaf extract (Carica Papaya) increased breast milk volume and prolactin hormone levels in nursing mothers.
