There is an association between breastfeeding and postpartum depression, with breastfeeding being associated with a lower risk of postpartum depression. The duration of breastfeeding and exclusive breastfeeding have different effects on the risk of postpartum depression.
Background: The association of breastfeeding (BF) for postpartum depression (PPD) remains controversial. Currently there are no specific guidelines on the role of BF in the management of PPD. Objectives: To determine the association between BF and PPD. Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE up to December 2021 for relevant articles associated between PPD and BF. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a random-effects model.Results: A total of 8 studies with 18,570 participants were included. BF was associated with a 14% lower risk of PPD (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.94, I2 = 51.78%). For a single BF episode, BF duration of >1 month was associated a 37% lower risk (OR 0.63, 95% CI 0.47-0.79, I2 = 34.98%, P = 0.19), and BF for <1 month was associated with a 6% lower risk (OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.89-0.99, I2 = 0.00%, P = 0.61). Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) compared with never breastfeeding (NBF) was associated with a 53% lower risk for PPD (OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.27-0.66, I2 = 0.00%, P = 0.98). And EBF compared with partial breastfeeding (PBF) was associated with an 8% lower risk for PPD (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.86-0.98, I2 = 13.86%, P = 0.31). The subgroups we studied may be a source of heterogeneity.Conclusions: Our results show an association between PPD and risk for BF. To confirm the conclusion, more studies with large sample sizes are required.
