I've been contacted by a mom who has a problem with continuous production of
milk.  She began lactating when she first started menstrating and has
continued through 2 pregnancies and weanings for a total of 7 years.  She's
pregnant for the third time, but would like to know how to stop the
production of milk when she chooses to wean this new baby.  She says she
leaks in such a quantity as to wet her shirt even when not nursing a baby.

I have a list of herbal suggestions, but what else could be the problem.  Her
Doctor said he had no idea why she produced milk even with no stimulation.
 Is this condition called Hyperprolactinemia?  Is it writen about anywhere?
