Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,

Milk secretion from non lactating breast could be due to high prolactin levels, you need to get checked for the same. If found high tablets such as Cabergoline can be taken for the same.

The IUD is a very effective contraceptive and you need not fear pregnancy as it is 99.8% effective.

Smoking especially marijauna should be avoided if possible especially since you have young kids at home. It could be the reason for your weight loss.

I would like to know if you have irregular periods as well.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
