A member asked:
A pcos woman after giving birth what are the factors that affect breast feeding?when should she start ocp and spironolactone again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No special effect: PCOS patients should be able to breastfeed as well as anyone. There are no specific requirements or needs. Any non hormonal birth control or more specifically non Estrogen containing birth control method is appropriate to use to prevent pregnancy while breastfeeding. There is no urgent need to restart Spironolactone.
