http://kellymom.com/bf/can-i-breastfeed/meds/birthcontrol/#conclusionI didn't get on to BC (Mirena) until 9 months post-partum. I did notice a dip, but that was only because i got my period around the same time. My OB did tell me that IUD had minimal effect on supply.

I used the mini pill for 2 weeks and my supply started to tank so I stopped.
-
I was on the mini pill for 10 months and this time have Mirena with no ill effects either time.
-
I didn't notice a dip in supply while on the mirena.
-
I have had an IUD (Mirena) for about 7 weeks and have not noticed any problems with my supply.
-
I was on a progesterone pill that is about 10x the strength of the mini pill and I had no supply issues.
-
I was on the mini pill for about 4.5 months. I didn't notice it affecting my supply at all.
-
I took the mini pill, even though I really didn't want to, I didn't want an oops baby either. I didn't notice any drop in supply.
