I know that pregnancy activates hormones that make the breasts lactate, but when does it stop? I’ve heard weird stories of children being beast fed up until they were 16 so like how do you stop producing milk? Does your body automatically stop making milk after a day or so of no breastfeeding?
Like I know getting pregnant does alter the breasts and make them big but eventually they will come back to normal right?

I might be wrong but I do believe that a woman’s breasts stop producing milk after she chooses to stop breastfeeding. In cases such as those that breastfeed for years and years, it’s because they continue to breastfeed. You don’t use it, you lose it. And yes, most often the breasts return to normal. Sometimes slightly bigger and sometimes slightly smaller than before.
