Suck/pump. Starting with 5 minutes three times a day if I recount correctly.
What happens during pregnancy seems to be high levels of estrogen and progesterone, which increase prolactin levels and inhibit lactation. Followed by a drop of estrogen and progesterone levels, but prolactin staying high for some time and lactation starts. The baby sucking then results in more prolactin being released.
Nonsense. You’ll have to take some prolactin supplements, but then those babies will work right as rain.
But does it? I actually wondered recently.
It sounded like lactation would be blocked by other hormones. Or was that just about increasing prolactin production?
Taking it continuously might work, but inducing it sounded hopeless.
You tellin’ me that just being on estrogen won’t make me milk myself?? Fuck, there go my plans for a self-milk factory.
You can manually induce lactation if doing so chemically isn’t to your tastes
Not that I have a problem with chemicals (obviously), but…
How would one do that manually?

Huh. Fascinating.
Does it work regardless of horomones or does it require estrogen, progesterone, etc?
Viagra would be another good way to start that self-milk factory
Viagra contains prolactin?
No, a different kind of “milking” is meant
