I have been lactating for less than a week. I have a mirena IUD in and I am not on any medications. I doubt that it's a hormonal imbalance so I would like information on this other than just an answer of "you may have a hormonal imbalance."
There are a few reasons a woman may produce milk inappropriately. The most common reasons are, in fact, hormone imbalance (elevated prolactin, and sometimes thyroid) and suction. If you are having spontaneous breast discharge from one or both breasts, the problem deserves an early visit with your health care provider. If you have one-sided discharge, this symptoms also deserves a visit soon. If you are having discharge only when you squeeze your nipples to express milk, stop squeezing; the physical manipulation itself may be contributing to the symptom.
Galactorrhea was not one of the side effects reporting in the premarketing studies of Mirena, so it appears unlikely that it's the cause of your milk.
