What to do if you take the emergency contraceptive pill while breastfeeding

If you take emergency contraceptive pills during breastfeeding without intercourse, first of all, you should not breastfeed immediately after taking emergency contraceptive pills because it will affect the health of your child. It is necessary to wait 48-72 hours after taking the pill before breastfeeding, and it is necessary to help the milk to drain without interruption within 48-72 hours, so as not to cause a lack of milk or the drug in the milk, which may cause certain effects if breastfeeding directly to the child. Drink plenty of warm water within 48-72 hours to speed up the metabolism of the drug and to avoid adverse reactions. After 72 hours, normal breastfeeding can be performed, which generally does not affect the health of the child.
