Nephrologist 's  Response
Thanks for the query. Breast milk will be produced upto 6 months sometimes even more. You will have to be careful because if u dont express it out u might land up with a breast infection. Meet a gynaecologist for medications as hormonal replacements to stop lactating have side effects u will have to be explained in detail about it
