When To Take The Red Oralcon F Pills?

Updated

This is my first time using the Oralcon. 1. I'm currently breastfeeding my 5 month old baby and I realized when I started the pill my milk production is less. Could the pill be the cause. Also 2. I've taken all 21 of the white pills and I'm on my third red pill and my period is here. Do I stop taking the red pills and start taking another set of white ones or do I continue taking the red pills until its finished before I start another pack?

Hello, Kimmy! How are you?

Yes, you should continue taking them and then start a new pack once you finish this one, according to the NIH.

As to milk production, the NIH does not that anything that may affect your hormones could also change your milk production. Is your baby still being adequately fed? Are you on any other medications?

I am currently feeding him infant formula as the milk production is not enough to feed exclusively. No other medication
