Is it normal that I am producing milk?

Sometimes a bit of milk may start to come out from the breasts after an abortion or miscarriage.

It is suggested to:

  • Not stimulate or squeeze the breasts, or express milk (those actions will make the breasts produce more milk)
  • Wear a tight fitting bra (even while sleeping).
  • Take pain medication such as paracetamol or ibuprofen for discomfort.
  • Ice or cold compresses on the breasts for ten minutes every 2 hours may also provide relief.
