Hi all,
I recently started weaning and was wondering if I should switch off of the estrogen only birth control pill. My OB put me on it because I was breastfeeding but now that I’m weaning I’m wondering if I should go back to the regular combination pill. I’ve been happy with it because my milk supply remained stable. I still have 4 months on my Rx but I heard it can be less effective as a birth control method. I am good about taking it consistently though.
I also really need to start to lose weight and I’m not sure if it has contributed to my weight gain PP. The hunger while breastfeeding has been next level. I eat breakfast at 7 or 8 and by noon i’ll be trembling I am so hungry.
