Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns today.

I wish you had given me some more details. Are you still breastfeeding your daughter? Do you have regular cycles? Did your doctor do any hormone tests?

Bremeston contains Bromocryptine. Bromocryptine works by restoring the balance of a substance called dopamine in the brain. It has several uses. In your context it is used
- to stop breast milk secretion or
-to reduce the level of prolactin hormone. Prolactin level if high can interfere with fertility

The other uses of Bremeston are to reduce growth hormone level and to treat Parkinsonism.
There is a better drug available called Cabergoline which has less side effects than Bremeston. Do discuss with your doctor and use this medication instead of Bremeston.
I hope this is helpful. If you have further concerns, do contact me through Healthcare Magic.
I find this answer helpful

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, look pregnancy is more natural phenomenon than physiological one and does not need any medicine to get it happen but this depends upon some compatibility, like presence of sperm and ovum at the time of coitus, given medicine may be for placebo effect, only, have a nice day.
