A member asked:
It's approximately 2 years since i've stopped breastfeeding my last born. however i noticed my breast refills with milk and i leak milk occasionally. why hasn't my milk dried up. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Residual breast milk: After two years since ceasing breast feeding, sexual activity involving the breast with oral stimulation may result in continued production of some lactation. If this is not a possibility with your practices, there are medications which can stop all milk production.
