Femilon can change the quantity and composition of milk secreted. Small amounts of it can even pass in the milk to the child. These small amounts may not cause any significant harm to the child but its better to use a different method of contraception if your child is breastfeeding.

Usually contraceptive is not needed when exclusively breastfeeding. You may consult your obstetrician for more information.
