Thank you for writing in HMC,
if your breast feeding the safest drug for you is progsterone only pill/mini pill as suggested by your doctor. also you can have intramuscular depo injection and progesterone implants. all these have its own side effects which include irregular bleeding and amennorhea. acne, anxiety,dizziness,backache etc. risk of breast cancer is rare. this is the safest way for contraception in lactation, i would suggest the same. femilon is a combined OCP (has estrogen and progesterone) which is not given to lactating mothers.
