High prolactin and low progesterone is what causes lactation. High progesterone halts it. Vitex actually provides prolactin, which usually leads to more progesterone but maybe not in your case. You might try progesterone cream or 1,000-2,000 mg dong quai instead for progesterone without prolactin. If you want an anti-prolactin there's 500 mg or more vitex which is too much so it saturates and blocks prolactin receptors. Or 5,000-10,000 mg mucunua pruriens which provides dopamine which directly counteracts prolactin.
