Not needed: Without a stimulus, your production of breastmilk will taper off naturally and stop.

Nothing: Mother Nature will do the job if the breasts are not emptied or stimulated over time. Restrictive breast binders were used in the past to accomplish this task. Utilizing hormonal contraception will also speed up the "breast milk resolution process."
