When compared with the target set by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, which is 80%, so, the achievement of exclusive breastfeeding at the Indonesian level hasn’t meet the target. Breast milk production is influenced by the hormones prolactin, oxytocin, and endorphins. The method that can be used to release these hormones is by doing oketani massage.
