Another great benefit of breastfeeding is that it delays the return of the menstrual period, this helps reduce the possibility of another immediate pregnancy, however it is not 100% safe.

Therefore, if you do not want to get pregnant immediately, it is advisable that you take a contraceptive method and here I tell you which ones are safe during breastfeeding (it is important that you check with your gynecologist).
\u2063
1. The method of breastfeeding, amenorrhea (LAM) in the first 6 months after delivery, has an efficacy of 98%. This method consists of using breastfeeding as a temporary method of family planning. It is NOT 100% safe to prevent pregnancy. It is only useful if:
- Breastfeeding is exclusive and the mother breastfeeds frequently, both day and night.
- No resumption of menstrual periods
- The baby is less than 6 months old.
\u2063
2. Progesterone-only mini-pills or contraceptives.
- These contraceptives are generally used: during breastfeeding, with an efficacy of 99.5% for the first six months of the puerperium.
- They do not affect milk volume, composition, or cause any effects on the baby.
\u2063
3. Condom
- It is the most suitable barrier method for postpartum and breastfeeding.
\u2063
4. IUD
Medicated (or bioactive), both copper-medicated (copper and silver or copper and gold) and hormone-releasing systems (gestagens) are a highly effective method of contraception.
\u2063
In short, breastfeeding prevents pregnancy in a 98% so if you are not yet looking for another baby I recommend that you combine it with any of the methods I mentioned above!!!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
