Breastfeeding: a natural method for child spacing.

P W Howie1.   

Abstract

Lactational amenorrhea plays an important role in child spacing. Recent research has led to a consensus regarding the status of lactational amenorrhea as a method of family planning. This is currently referred to as the lactational amenorrhea method. Research priorities were to field test the lactational amenorrhea method and define the factors that influence lactational amenorrhea and the interface between the lactational amenorrhea method and other family planning methods.
