Lots of comments to Karen already re the pill, but... Almost anywhere in the world you ask, you will find reports of mothers having problems with milk supply on the minipill or Depo. Sadly, these never get documented or published. Barbara Gross in Sydney, Australia was planning on doing a research project in this area. I haven't checked the literature, but it may have been published by now. Mike Woolridge has seen milk supply increase with Depo use in Thailand. The biological reality is that women vary as individuals, so we can probably expect any response. Question to Kathy A: What is "BFL" where Kathy Kennedy has written about lactational amenorrhea? Sorry for my ignorance of acronyms. Pat Lewis [log in to unmask]
