Lactation suppression

I do not want to breastfeed (please don't ask me why) i just don't want to. I just found out the NHS no longer prescribe cabergoline and instead recommended cabbage leaves 😞 anyone know how I can get a cabergoline prescription or anything else I may be able to ask for or get to stop lactation. Happy to pay private prices

Just book an appointment with a private GP and would imagine they can help you. If you Google private GPs near me you will find some or you can use an online GP service

I’m sure you’d be able to get it on a private prescription via a private GP. Tbh I’ve generally never found private prices that much more than NHS prescription costs but I’d pay anything to fix a problem.

Not used cabergoline but when I wanted to stop both times I dehydrated myself for a day or two and took sudofen. Pseudoephedrine is a milk supply killer, my midwife friend told me that’s why they advise any lactating mums never to use it when sick. My supply was gone in 3/4 days without any issues.
