Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What could cause milk discharge more than a year after weaning?Doctor's answer:
Hello, post-weaning galactorrhea is a common phenomenon. It is recommended that you first investigate the endocrine-related causes. If endocrine factors are ruled out as the cause of galactorrhea, you should pay attention to:1. Drinking less water, especially less soup during meals, which helps reduce milk production.
2. If milk secretion is particularly abundant, you can use some medications to promote weaning. For example, traditional Chinese medicine methods: brewing and drinking sprouted wheat (mai ya) with water, which has minimal side effects on the body; Western medicine methods: appropriately supplementing estrogen to inhibit prolactin to some extent, or using the prolactin-inhibiting drug "bromocriptine" to suppress lactation. Estrogen tablets (5 mg per dose, 3 times a day) and vitamin B6 (1 tablet per dose, 3 times a day) should be taken together for three days.
