What are the side effects of milk-reducing injections?

Some breastfeeding women worry about not having enough milk and collect secret recipes everywhere to nourish their bodies and make themselves produce milk, while others worry about having too much milk and not being able to finish it all. Too much milk will cause breast pain, and it will also make it very inconvenient for women to dress when going out, which will make them embarrassed in public. So people will choose to get a milk-reducing injection to stop this situation, but no matter what injection you get, there are side effects, and the milk-reducing injection is no exception. A detailed introduction to the side effects of milk-reducing injections.

1. There is a certain impact. Because the main ingredient of the milk-reducing injection is estrogen, the secretion of milk by the mammary gland is a normal result of hormone metabolism, and the milk-reducing injection forcibly changes this phenomenon, which is not good for the mammary gland, and there is a chance of developing diseases such as breast hyperplasia in the future.

2. Because the main ingredient of the milk-reducing injection is estrogen, which forcibly changes the mammary gland to secrete milk, long-term use in women may cause masculine manifestations such as acne, hirsutism, hoarseness of voice, and changes in sexual desire. If liver dysfunction or virilization in women is detected, the drug should be discontinued immediately. Large doses can cause virilization in women, edema, liver damage, jaundice, dizziness, etc.

3. The milk-reducing injection is diethylstilbestrol, an estrogen drug. After injection, it will cause gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea and vomiting, and it is likely to cause a disorder in the hormone levels in the body.

4. Giving a milk-suppressing injection is not the healthiest and most effective way to wean your baby. Natural weaning is more suitable. The milk-suppressing injection will affect women's endocrine system and may also cause breasts to shrink or induce breast diseases. During the weaning process, it is recommended not to squeeze the breasts too much or squeeze the milk. Such repeated stimulation of the breasts cannot completely wean the baby, and the milk supply will continue to increase. When weaning, do not squeeze the milk. When the milk in the breasts reaches a certain level and the milk swells to a certain degree, you will wean naturally.
