I didnt take any medications. I gradually wean off by reducing the number of pumps every few days. It will hurt due to engorgement etc but i just bear the pain and pump out just to relieve the pain abit. Make sure to have breast pads in bra. Apply cold compress and only took cold showers. Its a tough process but i got thru it in the end.

hi sis, don't mind me asking you but today morning I have started the cabbage compress and last pump at 3am ..any advise to guide me along?

It’s a prescription medication, if I’m not wrong. Otherwise, to do it naturally, cold compressions and gradual weaning will do the trick, but it’s slower.
