Question: can you get ovarian cancer while breastfeeding?
Answer: Breastfeeding was found to be associated with a 24% lower risk of invasive ovarian cancer (OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.71-0.80). Moreover, independent of parity, ever having breastfed was associated with a reduction in risk of all invasive ovarian cancer, particularly high-grade serous and endometrioid cancers.
