  • Lactational amenorrhea as a Family Planning method
    Salud Publica De Mexico, 1996
    Co-Authors: Canto-de Cetina T, Polanco-reyes L
    Abstract:

    The contraceptive effects of breast feeding still play an important role in child spacing in developing countries; however its use as a method of Family Planning was untested until 1988 when an international group of researchers met in Bellagio and reached a consensus statement that reads "The maximum birth spacing effect of breast feeding is achieved when mothers fully or nearly fully breastfeed and remain amenorrheic (and no menstrual bleeding has occurred before the 56th postpartum day). When these two conditions are present breast feeding provides more than 98% of protection in the first six months. That became the basis for a method of Family Planning called lactational amenorrhea method (LAM). This is a new introductory Family Planning method that simultaneously promotes child spacing and breast feeding with its optimal nutrition and disease prevention benefits for the infant. It is based on the natural infertility caused by the hormonal suppression of ovulation. (authors) (summaries in ENG SPA)
