O92.50: Suppressed lactation No mention of difficulties latching on

Your breasts are not giving milk any more.

The breast is made up of fatty tissue, connective tissue and the mammary gland. Milk is produced in the mammary gland during and after pregnancy so that the child can be fed. The milk from the mammary gland passes to the nipple through the milk ducts. There are certain messengers in the body that stimulate milk production in the mammary gland. There are certain medications that inhibit milk production. The mammary glands then stop producing milk. When the mammary glands stop producing milk, it is known as weaning.
