• Concern

I am currently on the birth control Aubra EQ. When I eventually have children, will my milk supply be affected by the medication because I stopped taking it?

It really should not affect your milk supply.

Your milk supply should not be affected in the future by taking that now.

The short answer is it will not interfere with the production of breastmilk. Factors that influence breast milk production include hormones, such as prolactin, and whether or not breast-feeding is full-time or part-time. Also, medications may influence the effect such as birth control pills. Also, genetic factors may play a role in milk production.

No, birth control pills do not have any effect on the future milk supply when you eventually conceive.
You can take them.
Take care!
