hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
If your child is on only breastfeeding, it is advisable to use only progesterone hormone pills to be used for either contraceptive purpose or for postponing the periods. It will not interfere much with milk formation. But combination pills containing estrogens and progesterone can reduce milk secretion.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
