Understanding the Challenge of Mastitis in Lactation

This resource offers a review of mastitis during breastfeeding and the emerging role of probiotics in its prevention. Developed by clinical experts, it explores the multifactorial causes of mastitis, its impact on breastfeeding continuity, and effective strategies for early identification and management. By combining scientific evidence with practical guidance, the document provides a foundation for improving outcomes for mothers and infants.

How Health Care Professionals Can Benefit

Obstetricians, pediatricians, midwives, lactation consultants, and dietitians will find practical, evidence-based tools in this resource, including:

  • Updated diagnostic criteria to differentiate mastitis from similar conditions.

  • Prevention strategies including the use of specific probiotic strains during pregnancy and early lactation.

  • Management recommendations that maintain breastfeeding continuity while reducing complications.

  • Insights from systematic reviews and clinical trials on probiotics such as Ligilactobacillus salivarius PS2.

By applying these approaches, you can help reduce mastitis incidence, support exclusive breastfeeding, and improve maternal comfort and infant health outcomes.
