My dr keeps trying 1st generation bcps & i keep having btb. he says it is my bfing but my prolactin levels are normal. what do you think?

BTB: Menstrual irregularities are common in bfing women. Birth control pills may add up to this problem too. You may choose alternative, non-hormonal method (copper iud, condoms) if you don't plan to get pregnant for a while. Also, looks like you have a thyroid issue. Make sure it is under control as well.
