The control group was breastfeeding mothers given oxytocin massage only, while the treatment group was breastfeeding mothers given oxytocin massage and date palm extract simultaneously. Each group consisted of 20 samples. The measurement of breast milk volume was conducted on day 7th and day 14th of postpartum. Results: The results showed that there was no significant difference on the 7th day of measurement in all groups, while on the 14th day of measurement there was a significant difference in breast milk production in the group of mothers who were given date palm extract and oxytocin massage simultaneously, with a p-value of 0.000.
