Mini pill and milk supply problems

I started taking the mini-pill last week and almost instantly I noticed I wasn't producing enough milk. I had a really good supply before I started taking it. I'm pretty sure it's the pill because I can still pump about 6-8 ounces in the morning but after I take it at 2 in the afternoon I can barely get an ounce between both breasts. I've read it's rare but it does happen to some women. I don't want to use the implant or an IUD, and DH said he's fine with using condoms. Has this happened to anyone else?

  • I was nervous to start the mini pill for this reason but I started 2 days ago and no supply issues yet

  • This happened to me! When I stopped the pill it took about a week and a half but my supply came back. I wish someone had told me this could happen before I started taking the pill.
  • I took the mini pill for almost a month and the same thing happened. I got off the pill and my supply went way up again! It also killed what little libido I had left- just couldn't justify staying on it.
