The lactational amenorrhea method is a natural method of family planning for women who breastfeed their infants. The underlying physiology results in a natural suppression of ovulation, and the concomitant amenorrhea, induced by exclusive (or almost exclusive) breastfeeding. This in addition to the infant's age of 6 months or less and specific feeding pattern are the parameters used to identify the possible return of fertility. The lactational amenorrhea method provides at least 98% protection against pregnancy. Data from a recent multicenter study of breastfeeding support the use of the lactational amenorrhea method as a natural family planning method. The lactational amenorrhea method can be incorporated into natural family planning programs and teaching.
哺乳期闭经法是一种供哺乳期妇女使用的自然计划生育方法。其潜在生理机制会导致自然抑制排卵，以及由纯母乳喂养（或几乎纯母乳喂养）引发的伴随性闭经。此外，婴儿6个月及以下的年龄以及特定的喂养模式是用于确定生育能力可能恢复的参数。哺乳期闭经法提供至少98%的避孕效果。近期一项关于母乳喂养的多中心研究数据支持将哺乳期闭经法作为一种自然计划生育方法使用。哺乳期闭经法可纳入自然计划生育项目及教学中。
