The choice of the appropriate method is ultimately up to the doctor, who conducts the examination/interview, reads the patient's full history of treatment and is able to assess the possibility of using certain contraceptives on this basis.
Analyzing the situation from the perspective of eliminating possible pharmacological problems, the use of a hormone-free spiral can be considered:
However, it is not without contraindications, so it will be necessary to consult a doctor.
And what forms of contraception will be effective in this case? plasters or e.g. wkaldka

Talk to your doctor about starting the use of the contraceptive pill because of the interaction between Lamitrin and oral contraception. Contraceptive pills affect the metabolism of lamotrigine and significantly reduce its effectiveness. Taking both drugs at the same time requires constant medical supervision and correction of the dosage of lamotrigine. Due to the risk of treatment disorders and intensification of side effects, the doctor may suggest other methods of protection against pregnancy.
