How long before milk dries up?

Hi

I’ve been mix feeding (primarily formula but offer breast at start of each feed). Have done this for 8 weeks. Baby is now refusing the breast after 5 mins or so on each side I guess as the milk flow slows. I was expecting this as I know mix feeding is bad for supply. I’m continuing to BF at every feed but not persisting once she refuses. I occasionally feel engorged now and leak maybe once a day like the early days. Just wondering roughly how long it will likely be before the milk dries up?
