My baby is six months and I would like to know if it is safe to take the femiplan pills?

The femiplan pill is known as a combination pill that has oestrogen that can inhibit milk production. If you do intend to continue breastfeeding, it is better to use non-hormonal methods eg IUD – Intrauterine Device (Coil) or Progestin only pill which allows the body to continue producing milk. Please do consult with your doctor to determine the best method for you
