Over-Production, Weaning or Stopping or Decreasing Milk Production

Moms sometimes need to decrease or stop their breastmilk production for a variety of reasons - weaning, adoption, fetal demise, or just an over-abundant breastmilk supply!  This article will give you suggestions on how to stop, or simply decrease milk supply while maintaining a manageable flow for their baby, and to prevent plugged ducts and mastitis, which is a real risk when trying to stop or decrease milk supply.  (To read the entire article, please Login or Subscribe.)

Poke Root


Poke Root is one of the best herbs to help clear mastitis (breast infection). It is traditionally used as a lymph cleanser, and has a special affinity for red, inflamed mammary glands, testicles and throat. The typical experience with this herb is that a breast infection will usually clear up within 24 hours, without the use of antibiotics. It is also useful in cases of a sore throat with swollen lymph glands in the neck. This too, usually will clear overnight.

Testimonial

Hi Pam,  I'm so happy to have found your products, the Nursing Tincture (Moringa Blend) in particular works really well. I was afraid that going back to work would make my milk supply drop which is one of the main reasons I bought it. It's actually making me over-produce now and has allowed me to save up a really nice stash in my freezer for my son. I'm trying to decrease my supply now for my morning pump as I have a lot of milk (sometimes 30oz in one morning).  Do you have any suggestions on how I can safely reduce my supply without totally diminishing it?  Thank you, A.S.   (Yes, Sage Tea or Tincture helps to gently decrease milk supply, or simply cut back or stop using the Nursing Tincture Moringa Blend if your supply is adequate.  You may not have need of it any more!)
