Will the contraception fail?

Patient's question:

My friend told me today that during her sexual activity, she didn't use protection in the middle, and then she forgot to take the pill for three days. She only took it on the third day. She wants to ask the doctor if this will affect her ability to breastfeed successfully. When is the most appropriate time for breastfeeding in general?

Doctor's answer:

This should be acceptable to breastfeed while taking the medication within 72 hours, so it is important to closely monitor the menstrual cycle and other details. After taking the medication, observe how the withdrawal bleeding occurs. Do not feel stressed, and you can use an early pregnancy test kit carefully two weeks after sexual activity to check. In terms of diet, avoid extremely cold foods, but pay close attention to sunning and sterilizing underwear to ensure cleanliness. Also, focus on enhancing nutrition.
