PIP: Menstruation and conception during lactation are discussed. 943 postpartum patients were observed during lactation for the frequency of menstruation. Of mothers who at 4 months after birth were breast-feeding, breast and artificially feedings, or artificially feeding their children, 39.8, 56.8, and 95.3%, respectively, had menstruated. It is suggested that ovarian activity does not interfere with lactation and failure of lactation leads to a return of the cycle only indirectly because it results in a reduction of the suckling stimulus. Of 1227 postpartum women, 87 became pregnant within a year of delivery and 10 conceived while their children were being wholly or partially breast-fed. 4 of the 10 women became pregnant before menstruation was reestablished.
