Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for more than five and a half months. Due to many special reasons, we couldn't keep this child, so we had an abortion at the hospital. After the abortion, I have been producing milk. How long will it take for the milk to stop after the abortion? The kind of help I need: How long will it take for the milk to stop after the abortion?Doctor's answer:
After an abortion, if there is milk, it is also a relatively common phenomenon. Therefore, if this situation reoccurs, it is generally not necessary to seek treatment, mainly because of the rise in hormone levels in the body. If medication is not taken, milk secretion may reappear, accompanied by breast tenderness and fullness. Generally, it may take about a week for the milk to gradually subside. The above is advice on the question "How long after an abortion will milk production stop?" We hope it is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
