ESTROGENS TO PREVENT SWELLING OF THE BREASTS AFTER PREGNANCY
If you do not breast feed your baby after delivery, your breasts may fill up with milk and become painful and engorged. This usually begins about 3 to 4 days after delivery and may last for a few days to up to a week or more. Sometimes the discomfort is severe, but usually it is not and can be controlled by pain relieving drugs such as aspirin and by binding the breasts up tightly. Estrogens can be used to try to prevent the breasts from filling up. While this treatment is otten successful, in many cases the breasts fill up to some degree in spite oi treatment. The dose of estrogens needed io prevent pain and swelling of the breasts is much larger than the dose needed to treat symptoms of the menopause and this may increase your chances of .developing blood clots in the legs or lungs (see below). Therefore, it is important that you discuss the benefits and the risks of estrogen use with your doctor if you have decided not to breast feed your baby.rugs dugs drgs drus drug ddrugs drrugs druugs druggs drugss rdugs durgs drgus drusg srugs erugs rrugs frugs crugs xrugs deugs d4ugs d5ugs dtugs dgugs dfugs ddugs drygs dr7gs dr8gs drigs drkgs drjgs drhgs drufs druts druys druhs drubs druvs druga drugw druge drugd drugx drugz sdrugs dsrugs edrugs derugs rdrugs drrugs fdrugs dfrugs cdrugs dcrugs xdrugs dxrugs derugs dreugs d4rugs
