Summary

This pilot study looked at whether giving the birth control shot (DMPA) to 40 women in Nepal within 48 hours of giving birth affects when their milk comes in and how well they breastfeed. The main goal was to see if a larger study on this topic is possible. The study was completed and focused on feasibility, not on proving any effects on breastfeeding.
