Virtual Lactation Support Enhances Breastfeeding and Mental Health Outcomes
A study by UMass Chan Medical School found that virtual lactation support through the SimpliFed platform significantly improved breastfeeding duration and maternal mental health. Participants who engaged in multiple telelactation visits breastfed longer and experienced reduced anxiety and depression symptoms. The study highlights the importance of continued support for new mothers beyond hospital discharge, addressing gaps in traditional lactation support.
