I read in the paper today about the new birth control pill approved
by the FDA, preven I believe that is supposed to be on the shelves by
the end of the month. It's a post-intercourse pre-pregnancy pill
that is supposed to stop pregnancies (or from babies adhering to the
uterus). Does anyone know if there is any information on how this
will affect lactating mothers? Or the rate of birth defects for
pregnancies that are not terminated by the pill?
