ABSTRACT
The risk of pregnancy in breastfeeding should be a concern of women.
Family planning programs in the post natal period contraceptive
choices offer high efficiency. Breastfeeding is a natural contraception
method (LAM) as a contraceptive shield has 98 % efficiency. Women
should consider using an alternate contraceptive method when feeding
requirements for this method to be effective are not met. Some of
contraceptive alternatives in lactation include hormonal methods. According
to the Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use WHO
combined hormonal methods are contraindicated during breastfeeding,
hormonal progestogen only methodo are considered only in Group 3
and Group 1 immediate postpartum after 6 weeks postpartum . There
are modifications to these criteria by the CDC and the UK for the use
of these hormones in early in lactation-
