Have u ever used medicine to stop producing breast milk?

I want to stop breast feeding, and wanted to know what happens once u use medicine to stop milk flow? Do you still get engorged??? I hope not. And how fast does the milk stop coming?

Answers:
The pill should dry it up, you should not get engorged. Ask your doctor before doing it. Make sure your baby is completely weaned. Do not breastfeed after taking any kind of medicine like that.

I did accidentally
Sinus and allergy medicine will dry you up
I dried up after two days of taking it and did not get engorged at all.

I never breast fed, and my youngest is now 22 years old. Hospital gave me a little red pill that dryed my milk up. Daughter just had a baby, (did not breast feed), and she said they dont do that anymore, she got so swollen and sore, she was miserable, but after a couple of weeks of wearing "wet" shirts, she was alot better.
