Clinical Trial Summary

Objectives

To clarify the relationship between postpartum (2 weeks) use of progestin-only vs. combined oral contraceptive pills and the outcomes of breastfeeding continuation, infant growth, contraceptive method continuation, and pregnancy rates in breastfeeding women. Specific research questions:

1. To determine whether there is a difference in rates of breastfeeding continuation at 2 months and 4 months between postpartum breastfeeding women using progestin-only pills vs. combined pills.

2. To determine whether there is a difference in infant growth at 2 months and 4 months between postpartum breastfeeding women using progestin-only pills vs. combined pills.

3. To determine whether there is a difference in birth control method continuation at 2 months and 4 months between postpartum breastfeeding women using progestin-only pills vs. combined pills.

4. To determine whether there are differences in pregnancy rates between the two groups over the time course of the study.

Hypothesis

Combined oral contraceptive pills, when initiated by postpartum breastfeeding women, will cause a differential in continuation of breastfeeding: 35% continuation in the combined pill group vs. 60% in the progestin-only pill group at 8 weeks.
