Hello,
Which OC pills are you taking? I am asking because while breast feeding you have to take progesterone only pill. Did you forget any pill in between? Was your last period which you had proper in relation to bleeding and all? You need to answer these questions to get more information on your situation and then accordingly your doctor will get to know and guide you.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Rishma Lakhani, OB & GYN Specialist
