Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
If you are breastfeeding then you cannot get pregnant.
Breastfeeding is a natural contraception method.
So don't worry, you don't need to take any medications.
But if you are not and you said you are breastfeeding just like that.
Then you do need.
Best regards.
