    Abstract:
    Several new aspects of lactation are summarized and concerning the current pattern of breast-feeding in the region of Vienna, including the results of recent studies, carried out at the Ith Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the University of Vienna are discussed. Newer theoretical data of the physiology of lactation, in particular the action of prolactin and its inhibition are reviewed. A detailed survey of the advantage of the natural nutrition of the infant with the mother's milk, and the problem "breast-feeding and drugs", is given. The author also presents a new approach in the treatment of postpartal breast-engorgement, purpureal mastitis and primary and secondary inhibition of lactation with bromocriptine.
