An example is already provided on how to use ReduceLROnPlateau in the documentation. Refer to the comments in the documentation:
"""Reduce learning rate when a metric has stopped improving.
    Models often benefit from reducing the learning rate by a factor
    of 2-10 once learning stagnates. This scheduler reads a metrics
    quantity and if no improvement is seen for a 'patience' number
    of epochs, the learning rate is reduced.
    Args:
        optimizer (Optimizer): Wrapped optimizer.
        mode (str): One of `min`, `max`. In `min` mode, lr will
            be reduced when the quantity monitored has stopped
            decreasing; in `max` mode it will be reduced when the
            quantity monitored has stopped increasing. Default: 'min'.
        factor (float): Factor by which the learning rate will be
            reduced. new_lr = lr * factor. Default: 0.1.
        patience (int): Number of epochs with no improvement after
            which learning rate will be reduced. Default: 10.
        verbose (bool): If True, prints a message to stdout for
            each update. Default: False.
        threshold (float): Threshold for measuring the new optimum,
            to only focus on significant changes. Default: 1e-4.
        threshold_mode (str): One of `rel`, `abs`. In `rel` mode,
            dynamic_threshold = best * ( 1 + threshold ) in 'max'
            mode or best * ( 1 - threshold ) in `min` mode.
            In `abs` mode, dynamic_threshold = best + threshold in
            `max` mode or best - threshold in `min` mode. Default: 'rel'.
        cooldown (int): Number of epochs to wait before resuming
            normal operation after lr has been reduced. Default: 0.
        min_lr (float or list): A scalar or a list of scalars. A
            lower bound on the learning rate of all param groups
            or each group respectively. Default: 0.
        eps (float): Minimal decay applied to lr. If the difference
            between new and old lr is smaller than eps, the update is
            ignored. Default: 1e-8.
    Example:
        >>> optimizer = torch.optim.SGD(model.parameters(), lr=0.1, momentum=0.9)
        >>> scheduler = ReduceLROnPlateau(optimizer, 'min')
        >>> for epoch in range(10):
        >>>     train(...)
        >>>     val_loss = validate(...)
        >>>     # Note that step should be called after validate()
        >>>     scheduler.step(val_loss)
