Stopped breastfeeding - Can I continue taking Levelen ED?

Dear Ask The Doctor: Can I go back on Levlen ED now that I have stopped breastfeeding?

Dear Janet: Since you have stopped breast feeding, it may be ok to go back on Levlen ED, though I would suggest you to consult your doctor if you are taking any other medication that may interact with Levlen or if you have given birth or otherwise ended a pregnancy within the past 4 weeks.
