Cabbage leaves in your bra.
Cabbage leaves worked for me
I’ve been told chi tea
Wrap tight with ace bandage.
Freeze cabbage leaves stick them in a bra (one that you don’t want after & can trash) let them stay for a good while! Worked wonders for me.
Sudafed 3-4 times a day

In Afrika, we use cabbage leaves…
drink lots of elderflower syrup and/or peppermint tea 
My mom told me to use cold cabbage it worked
Two sports bras always, no stimulation! I took showers in them and switched them out, dried up quick
Be patient, it will stop.
Wear a snug sports bra for like 2 weeks straight.
Benadryl and cold cabbage leaves shoved in a tight sports bra is the only thing that worked for me!

Wrap your breast in cabbage leaves and put your bra on. You would be dried up in a couple/few days.

Just express enough milk to be comfortable… Remember any stimulation to the breast produces milk.
Cabbage! My OB told me this & I did it after all of my kids. It works, just put it in your bra!

Frozen cabbage leaves in your bra. As soon as they defrost, replace them with frozen ones again.

Definitely try the cabbage as I have had lots of friends that this worked for, but if that doesn’t work make sure to get a checkup. I saw this question on another page and several of the responses were that they had a benign tumor on their pituitary gland that caused it. It was called a prolactinoma. I was surprised how common it was since I had never heard of it. Good luck!

Get in a hot shower and massage them for 5 minutes then when you get out put some ice cold peas on each one and let them get cold enough to be numb. The warm water and massage will tell your breasts to produce more but the cold compress will stop dit immediately therefore thoroughly confusing your body so it doesnt produce anything at all. It also gives you slight relief from all that built up pressure. After 4 days i was dry as hell man 
but i did the cold compress 4 times daily and then the shower and more cold compress aat night, i felt like i couldnt breathe the damn things grew so much 
i was sit in the shower and cry from the pain ooooff

I’ve heard pumping helps. Pump less every day to trick your body into thinking you need to produce less. But my milk never came in so I would recommend whatever everyone else is saying lol

COLD Cabbage leaves, cold is key. Change then out as they warm up. I would get a big leaf cover my whole boob and then put on a sports bra to help dry it up.

Y’all can have a problem that makes you lactate, unrelated to breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor. Google prolactinoma.
Cut out a cactus an pour out the juice from it and apply it on your breast for 2-3 days 3 times a day. It helps!
1.5 weeks. I did nothing, just stopped nursing, pumped maybe twice when engorgement was unbearable. I have though, heard cabbage leaves are a life saver.

I took allergy medicine. I didnt intent on drying up yet but was suffering so bad from seasonal allergies. I literally dried up within 2 days 
I had milk for 4 years after I stopped breastfeeding my daughter it stopped when I got pregnant. Then I had it for 1 year after stopping my son. It only went away when I got my nipples pierced. I had tried everything even the shot from my doctor none of it worked. I still have very very little but it’s still there almost 2 years later
I used cold cabbage leaves and it took about a week to dry up.
With my first son, my milk didn’t come in for 4 days after I had him. (ER C-section). By the time it did come in, he was already on formula. My mom got a head of cabbage and I used it and a tight sports bra for about 3 days, then back to normal.
With my 2nd son, I was really engorged and actually had to go to the doctor and get medication. I only used the cabbage for 2 days, but also in the shower, I used to painfully squeezed them to the point of almost crying.
My daughter’s OB told her to put cabbage leaves in her bra to dry it up. It worked!

I am child led breastfeeding my youngest but my oldest is 20 yrs older and my milk never completely dried up. I would even get a let down if I heard a crying baby. It will most likely take quite a while but you can always talk to OBGYN if it is bothersome.

I’ve heard Cold cabbage leaves. But a friend of mine told me to wear tight bras. Multiple even. So I wore a sports bra and then a regular bra and that did the trick after about a week. But my first baby I dried up within a month with no sign of why 
You can also use an ACE bandage to wrap around your chest. I did the leaves and had my mom help wrap me, lasted about 5 days or so
My first took 2years. My 2nd I got pregnant the same month I stopped nursing her so my dried up fast. 3rd I was nursing him I dried up (10months) because I got pregnant again
I was still leaking 3 years after but just in the shower
Cup of water in a disposable nappy freeze and stuff in bra and make sure it is firm and try not to touch breast the more stimulation the more it produces.nappy doesnt smell like cabbage but dries up within a couple of days both work well. As much as you can on the days while you are trying to dry up dont hold baby close to boobs.
If it’s been over a few months they will just jive you a pill to dry up
Ask your doctor if they can give you something to dry it up. My doctor gave me something after I lost my twins and after I had my youngest son in November.

Some women never stop producing😫 I thank God decided to stop breastfeeding and dried up within a week. But others never dry up. That’s how they had wet nurses back in the day. My exes aunt she still produced and she’s going into her 60s!

I dried up naturally after a month
It took me over a year to stop leaking, and even then I could still squeeze out a few drops if I tried to, so I guess I never really dried up between my first baby and this pregnancy.
Don’t let hot water run on them, keep them pulled tight in a sports bra and frozen cabbage. These are all of the things my nurses told me when I got mastitis after my second baby and wanted them to dry up
Sudafed. Nasal congestion. Just had my son in April n this worked in a little more than a week. Tke as directed.
Benadryl

I’m 7 months pp and still leaking.
I didn’t breastfeed after either one of my kids. I literally just took two ace bandages and compressed my chest for two weeks and it dried up really easy.
You can produce for the rest of your life around ovulation time even if you dry up so don’t like freak out if you do have some drops around that time
Ask your doctor for medication for that.

Cabbage. 100%. My son was easily eating a gallon a day and i dried up so fast. It was a damn miracle.
Why not pump and donate?
I dried up pretty naturally bc my son slowly weaned, but honestly I still had milk when he was 4 years old, and even after implants. It didn’t dry up until I got pregnant again
