Abstract

Breastfeeding, an essential aspect of infant care, has garnered recognition beyond its immediate health benefits, revealing a profound and lasting impact on women's health. Emerging research has unveiled a compelling relationship between breastfeeding and its enduring role in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer. This narrative review aims to comprehensively examine the lifelong impact of breastfeeding on ovarian cancer prevention, transcending infancy and delving into the mechanisms and implications for women's health. Epidemiological evidence consistently demonstrates an inverse association between breastfeeding and the risk of ovarian cancer. Prolonged durations of breastfeeding correlate with a significant reduction in the likelihood of developing ovarian malignancies, underscoring the protective influence of sustained lactation. The mechanisms underlying breastfeeding's impact on ovarian cancer prevention involve hormonal modulation and cellular changes. Breastfeeding contributes to reduced ovulatory cycles and oestrogen exposure, mitigating hormonal influences linked to ovarian cancer development. Moreover, the cellular alterations induced by breastfeeding within the ovarian microenvironment create an environment less conducive to malignant transformations. In conclusion, this paper consolidates evidence demonstrating breastfeeding's enduring impact on reducing ovarian cancer risk. It emphasizes the need for continued research, supportive interventions, and societal engagement to promote breastfeeding practices. Embracing breastfeeding not only provides immediate health benefits but also represents a formidable strategy in lifelong ovarian cancer prevention, offering a promising pathway towards enhanced women's health and well-being.

摘要

母乳喂养作为婴儿护理的一个重要方面,其意义已不仅局限于对婴儿直接的健康益处,还对女性健康产生了深远而持久的影响。新兴研究揭示了母乳喂养与降低卵巢癌风险之间的紧密联系及其长期作用。本叙述性综述旨在全面探讨母乳喂养对卵巢癌预防的终身影响,不仅涵盖婴儿期,还深入研究其机制以及对女性健康的意义。流行病学证据一致表明,母乳喂养与卵巢癌风险呈负相关。较长时间的母乳喂养与卵巢恶性肿瘤发生可能性的显著降低相关,凸显了持续哺乳的保护作用。母乳喂养影响卵巢癌预防的机制涉及激素调节和细胞变化。母乳喂养有助于减少排卵周期和雌激素暴露,减轻与卵巢癌发生相关的激素影响。此外,母乳喂养在卵巢微环境中引起的细胞改变营造了一个不利于恶性转化的环境。总之,本文整合了证据,证明母乳喂养对降低卵巢癌风险具有持久影响。强调需要持续进行研究、提供支持性干预措施并促进社会参与以推动母乳喂养实践。接受母乳喂养不仅能带来直接的健康益处,也是预防卵巢癌的一项重要终身策略,为增进女性健康和福祉提供了一条充满希望的途径。
