A member asked:

Full time breastfeeding, what are my chances for getting pregnant while using spermacide for a week?

Dr. MANNAN RAZZAK answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Natural method: Breast feeding itself is a natural contraceptive. Adding spermacides is additional protection. The chances are low but we have seen pregnancies even with these additional method used.

Dr, I'm 34 weeks pregnant and I noticed small white spots on my nipple tips. I stopped breastfeeding my first son in 2018 and wonder if the spots are the blocked milk in the pores. Will it harm my second baby and what can I do to get rid of it?
