As long as she is breastfeeding no nursing mother need take postinor.Breast feeding stimulates the production of a natural contraceptive in the body,so obviating the need for posti.However this is as long as u are b/feeding.08097885472

Sorry, but that's very misleading. While breastfeeding reduces the chances of conception its not really reliable enough unless you're doing it exclusively. If your baby is also on formula or if you don't breastfeed for long periods of the day (e.g. while at work) there's still a good chance you'll get pregnant.

In any case, there's no reason why you should be depending on Postinor. Its for emergency contraception only (e.g. when a condom bursts) and not for regular use. If you don't want to get pregnant, you should ask your doctor/gynaecologist for family planning. He'll probably offer you the progestogen-only pill (aka the minipill) which is safe, effective and is very often given to nursing mothers. There are plenty of other options in case you decide you don't like it.

Postinor has a high failure rate and can potentially mess up your menstrual cycle. Use it sparingly and only in emergencies.

Cheers.

It's effective in women that do exclusive breastfeeding,i.e.,breastmilk alone without even water.

Simple question and everybody is ranting. No one has even answered the question. This is exactly what's wrong with this country.

Prostinor, androcur , Xanax and all other anti steroid hormones should not be taken while nursing a baby, As little contents of the drugs are passed to the baby through Brest milk, and it also reduces milk production
