Still producing breast milk not breastfeeding

3 replies

My baby is now 20 weeks old. I was unable to breastfeed so she was bottle fed. However I am still producing breast milk and have to wear breast pads. I have tried the usual remedies to dry it up; cabbage leaves, sage tea, good right bras, but nothing is working. It's starting to get me down. Are there any other suggestions that I can try to dry up my breast milk. I do not intend to have any more children.

Combination birth control pills as well as non-prescription decongestants that contain pseudoephedrine, help dry up milk.
