Does green tea help with milk suppression?

Patient's question:

I am a 23-year-old woman, and I have been breastfeeding my child since birth. I want to wean, so I want to know if green tea is effective for weaning.

Doctor's answer:

According to the description, drinking green tea will just reduce milk supply significantly, but it cannot completely wean you off. It is recommended that you take Chinese herbal medicine, malt, to wean off milk. Malt has the effect of weaning and reducing swelling, and it is harmless to the body. It is also convenient to take and has a good effect. You can simply use a large dose of raw malt or roasted malt, decoct it for drinking. It is recommended that you maintain a regular routine in daily life, eat light, soft, and liquid foods, and drink plenty of hot water.
