Breast feeding on ortho tri-cyclenBy Jami from USA- Florida on May 10, 2007 Category: Ortho Tri-Cyclen (Oral) I am breast feeding and my doctor prescribed me Ortho Tri-Cyclen for my method of birth control. He said that there is information now that this pill is ok to take when breast feeding. I read the pamphlet that came in the pills and it states that there could be some possible jaundice and breast swelling in the baby. It says that it could also decrease the amount of milk I produce and the quality of the milk. I understand the packaging could be older than the new research and just wanted to confirm this before taking the pill. I understand that this is just a possibility, just like all the other side effects, but since it does not just effect me, I am being overly cautious. Please help. Thank you, Jami |
