Hi everyone,
I saw a Mum today who has some elements of breast hypoplasia and history of low milk supply with first baby, and now looking like a low supply with her current 6 day old.
Her Mum who is a midwife was present and when I asked about any hormonal/endocrine history she spoke up and said that her daughter was put on the oral contraceptive pill as a 12 year old to manage very heavy periods.
Does anyone know if OCP's at this age would have a negative effect on breast development?
thanks for your thoughts in advance.
