Is it okay to have sex without contraception during breastfeeding?

Patient's question:

I had a baby in March, and my first day off was on August 25th. After that, he didn't come for two months. My second maternity leave started on November 7th. On November 27th, she lived in the same room with her husband and didn't use any contraception. Could I be pregnant? I'm still eating now. I'm worried about getting pregnant again. How long should I wait to take a pregnancy test? Is there milk if I get pregnant again? If I do get pregnant and don't want it, what is the best way to have an abortion?

Doctor's answer:

Although menstruation may not occur during breastfeeding, there may still be menopause. Because menopause comes before menstruation. Therefore, contraceptive measures must be taken during sexual activity while breastfeeding. You can test blood HCG 11 days after sexual intercourse to check for early pregnancy. If pregnant, medication abortion or painless miscarriage can be performed, but it is best to stop taking medication and continue breastfeeding as much as possible.
