A. Stopping breastfeeding and reducing milk supply can be managed without medication in most cases. Here are some steps and tips to help you wean and reduce milk production: 1. **Gradual Weaning:** Gradually reduce breastfeeding sessions over a period of weeks. This will help your body naturally decrease milk production. 2. **Cold Compresses:** Apply cold compresses or cabbage leaves to your breasts to reduce swelling and discomfort. 3. **Avoid Stimulation:** Avoid stimulating your breasts, as this can increase milk production. Wear a supportive bra to reduce discomfort and avoid breast pumping unless necessary to relieve pressure. 4. **Herbal Remedies:** Some herbs, like sage and peppermint, are believed to reduce milk supply. You can drink sage tea, but consult your doctor before trying any herbal remedies. 5. **Over-the-Counter Medications:** Non-prescription pain relievers like ibuprofen can help reduce inflammation and pain. If you need a medication to stop milk production, consult with your healthcare provider. They might prescribe a medication like cabergoline or bromocriptine, which can help stop milk production. These medications require a prescription and should only be used under medical supervision due to potential side effects. Always discuss with your doctor before starting any medication to ensure it's safe and appropriate for your situation.
