Brief Answer:
Duoluton-L like pill shouldn't be used.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) Combined hormonal pill (like Duoluton-L) is usually NOT recommended during breast feeding as it contains high amount estrogen (0.05 mg).

Instead, you can take progesterone only or XXXXXXX pill (like Cerazette) throughout the breast feeding period. It is quite SAFE. Failure rate less than 1%.

If you want to take combined hormonal pill, then right pill (contains low dose of ethinyl estradiol 0.03 mg or less) like NOVELON etc should be chosen.

2) Combined oral pill might transiently affect growth negatively during the first month after introduction. The magnitude of the effect on lactation depends on the dose and the time of introduction postpartum. It can suppress lactation.

Rare cases of reversible breast enlargement in breastfed infants have been reported, mostly with estrogen doses higher than are currently used.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.

Brief Answer:
Stop breast feeding to resume period.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Welcome back again.

If you are on breast feeding, then your period may NOT be resumed. It is called lactation amenorrhea. It will suppress ovulation, leads to absence of period.

You need to stop breast feeding to get back your period. After that, you can take Duoluton-L tab to induce period as prescribed by your doctor.

Hope, it helps for your information. Good luck and take care.
