Hormonal disturbances like diabetes and hypothyroidism can decrease breast milk production in new mothers. This impacts the rate of complete breastfeeding in the first month postpartum.

Area of Science:

  • Endocrinology
  • Obstetrics
  • Lactation Physiology

Background:

  • Hormonal disturbances can significantly impact maternal health postpartum.
  • Puerperal lactation is crucial for neonatal nutrition and maternal-infant bonding.
  • Understanding the effects of endocrine disorders on lactation is vital for clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the influence of diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and ovulatory disturbances on puerperal lactation.
  • To compare milk production and breastfeeding rates in women with hormonal imbalances versus healthy controls.
  • To identify specific endocrine conditions that may negatively affect early lactation.

Main Methods:

  • Quantified milk volume via suckling and manual extraction in the first 6 days postpartum.

  • Assessed breastfeeding rates at one month postpartum.
  • Compared outcomes across patient groups: diabetes mellitus, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, ovulatory disturbance, and healthy controls.

    • Main Results:

    • Patients with diabetes mellitus and hypothyroidism produced significantly less milk.
    • Women with diabetes mellitus had a significantly lower rate of complete breastfeeding at one month postpartum.
    • No significant differences in milk production were observed in hyperthyroidism or ovulatory disturbance groups compared to controls.

    Conclusions:

    • Diabetes mellitus is associated with decreased neonatal suckled milk volume.
    • Hypothyroidism may impair lactation initiation, even in treated euthyroid patients.
    • Hormonal disturbances require careful consideration regarding lactation support and management.
