Hello Priya, Thank you for the question.It's very right on your part to consider contraception now that you have resumed sexual activity. Breastfeeding is a good contraceptive in itself but not foolproof. So it's better if you use some other forms of contraception even while you are breastfeeding. Preferably use a condom each time. If you don't want to use a condom then you can take a progesterone only pill (Pop) or you can get an intrauterine device (IUD) or even a progesterone depot injected. In all these cases there is small chance of baby receiving some progesterone except in condoms and IUD's, but that has no effect on the baby. These are all prescription Chat Doctor. Till then the safest method is using a condom. Hope this helps. Take care.
