Answer
<p>While the Paragard and hormonal methods that don't contain estrogen—the shot, the Mirena IUD, the implant and the mini-pill—are safe for people who are postpartum to use immediately after giving birth, combination pills, which contain estrogen, shouldn't be used until three weeks after giving birth, since estrogen can increase a postpartum person’s risk of blood clots.</p>
