HI,
The contraceptives to be taken during breast feeding are progesteron only pills. It was changed over to Oralcon pills ( which is a combined pill) after you stopped breast feeding. You did not have menses inspite of taking Oralcon for 2 months.
The possibility seems to be -
- You are yet to start your normal menses following delivery,
- You had a gap in between the change over of pills- during which the ovulation ocured & you conceived -after this you started with the Oralcon.
You get your pelvic sonography/ blood HCG test done to know pregnancy status. If pregnancy is confirmed, it has to be terminated ,for risk of fetal abnormality.
Thanks.
