[Maternal lipoproteins post partum. Qualitative and quantitative studies of the effect of lactation]
Quantitative and qualitative examinations of serum lipoproteins separated by use of discontinuous ultracentrifugation were performed in 17 lactating and 13 non-lactating healthy women 5 days and 5 weeks after delivery. In general a normalisation of the lipid parameters, which are increased during gestation, was observed during this period. Within 5 weeks after delivery all single parameters were in levels of normal non-pregnant women. A significant effect of lactation on the decrease of pregnancy-induced hyperlipoproteinemia after delivery could not be detected.
