Combined pill and breastfeeding?

I’ve been prescribed the combined pill and am breastfeeding. Everything on the NHS website and other reputable medical sites, say it’s fine from 6 week postpartum, but I know in the past, it’s been from 6 months postpartum as there was evidence it can reduce your milk supply. Anyone been on the combined pill and breastfed without any problems? I’m 8 weeks postpartum

It can affect milk.supply so if you so start taking it be aware and stop taking it if that happens. Mini pill is normally prescribed if breastfeeding
