lactational amenorrhea method (lam)

How Does LAM Work?

LAM works because the act of breastfeeding inhibits the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus, which in turn inhibits the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland. This suppression prevents the ovaries from releasing an egg, thereby preventing ovulation and subsequent pregnancy.
