Do I need to wear a bra while weaning?

Patient's question:

How to quickly wean, can you wear tight underwear? Do you need to express milk when your breasts are full? Do you need to go to the hospital?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, first stop breastfeeding, do not empty the breasts, reduce fluid intake. Other methods include: 1. Boil 60-90g of raw malt and drink it as tea. 2. Use 250g of Epsom salt wrapped in two layers of gauze to apply to both breasts and bandage. Replace when it becomes wet and hard. 3. Acupuncture at points such as Lingqui and Xuanchong. 4. Bromocriptine 2.5mg, taken twice daily with food in the morning and evening. This method is generally not recommended now. 5. Large amounts of estrogen, usually started as soon as possible within 24 hours after delivery.
