The author reports on studies of the relationship between breast-feeding and fertility in Pakistan, the Philippines, and Thailand. "The accumulated evidence suggests that during the first six months of unsupplemented breast-feeding, if the mother remains amenorrheic, then the breast-feeding stimulus is usually sufficient to postpone the recovery of fertility. Breast-feeding frequency alone is not a useful measure of the breast-feeding stimulus in terms of its ability to predict the return of menses or ovulation."
作者报告了在巴基斯坦、菲律宾和泰国进行的关于母乳喂养与生育能力之间关系的研究。“积累的证据表明,在纯母乳喂养的前六个月,如果母亲仍处于闭经状态,那么母乳喂养的刺激通常足以推迟生育能力的恢复。就预测月经恢复或排卵的能力而言,仅母乳喂养频率并不是衡量母乳喂养刺激的有效指标。”
