Transaction Log increasing very fast of sharepoint content database

Number of user some time face problem related to  Transaction log "increasing very soon".
I have also faced same problem with my firm production server. In my case transaction log of Intranet Database was increasing 4 GB every day. Solution and Step which I have done to reduce size of transaction log are mention below:

1. First run SQL query 
    
S       SELECT log_reuse_wait_desc,name  FROM  sys.database  

     
             


    2.  Run sql command by choosing your Database  DBCC OPENTRAN, you will get result
Message:

 

-if the log_reuse_wait_desc is replication (for you Database) then remove it

Run query to remove Replication : EXEC sp_removedbreplication YourDatabaseName

1.      Check recovery model. If it is full then change it to simple first. Command is

ALTER database <database name> set recovery simple

Then shrink the log file command is

dbcc shrinkfile (<file name>,0)

It will shrink your log file at the minimum level. Now you can change your recovery model from simple to full if required.

Now Size of Database is decrease by using above steps in my case..
