I have a request from a government office here to provide them with
information that Ovrette, (generic levonorgestrel) which is a progestin
only pill either is or is not potentially harmful for the breastfed infant
in terms of changes in the infant. I have references from Contraceptive
Technology for studies up to 1993, but wonder if there may be something
that has come out in the last couple of years.  TIA.  Judy
