I stopped breast feeding1 1/2yrs ago! why am i still having breastmilk?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: The most common reason is persistent stimulation of prolactin reduction which may npbe due to breast stimulus or nursing. However, it may be caused by a prolactin producing tumor or related to ore medications. I would discuss with our gynecologist who may perform a prolactin level.
