Others of you also do not speak favorably toward the BLIS (Breastmilk
Leakage Inhibitor System).  I have used it a few times with serious (and I
mean SERIOUS) leakage/oversupply problems.  It has been very effective.

Of course, I use it along with steps, as others have suggested, for
reducing the milk supply.  I have recommended it to 4 clients in the past 2
years (a small percentage of over-supply cases) when all other measures
were not resolving the problem. I am certain that it hastened the resolution.

Another client had a severe dimpled nipple and the constant leakage kept
the nipple inflamed and sore.  She finally decided after 3 months of
discomfort to stop feeding on that side.  The BLIS was helpful in stopping
the supply.
