我有甲亢,还可以母乳喂养我的宝宝吗?I may have an overactive thyroid; Can I still breastfeed my baby?

An overactive thyroid gland, also referred to as hyperthyroidism or Graves’ disease, is an important health concern. Thyroid disease is serious as the thyroid controls the body’s metabolic processes. According to the LLLI BREASTFEEDING ANSWER BOOK (BAB), any breastfeeding mother with thyroid disease should be under the care of a doctor who is supportive of her desire to breastfeed.

甲状腺过分活跃,也被称为甲亢或甲状腺功能亢进症,是一个重要的健康问题。甲状腺疾病需要引起重视,因为甲状腺控制身体的代谢过程。根据国际母乳会的《母乳喂养问答全书》(BAB),正在母乳喂养的妈妈,若得了甲状腺疾病,应寻找支持她母乳喂养意愿的医生得到医疗照护。

Diagnosis of an overactive thyroid can usually be based on the mother’s symptoms as well as a simple blood test. On occasion, radioactive testing is used to diagnose thyroid problems. If radioactive testing is recommended, the mother can ask her physician if the test could be postponed or another, non-radioactive test, be substituted.

甲状腺功能亢进可以基于哺乳妈妈的症状及同时做简单的血液测验结果来获得诊断。有时,放射性检测也用于诊断甲状腺疾病。如果需要用放射性检测,哺乳妈妈可以询问医生,是否可以推迟检测或者用别的非放射性测试来代替。 

If the radioactive test is used, temporary weaning is recommended. “The length of time the mother needs to suspend breastfeeding will depend on the type and dosage of radioactive materials used for the test” (BAB). Radioactivity of breastmilk declines over time, and frequent milk expression will help the mother eliminate the radioactivity from her body more quickly. This milk must be discarded and not fed to the baby. (Frequent milk expression will not hasten the elimination of other drugs from breastmilk.) For pumping information see LLLI FAQs about pumping.

如果哺乳妈妈已经做了放射性测试,推荐她暂时离乳。“妈妈暂停母乳喂养的时间需要根据放射性药物的使用种类和剂量不同而定”(BAB)。母乳中的放射性物质会随着时间减少,频繁的挤出乳汁也会帮助母亲更迅速地消除体内的放射性物质。这段时间的母乳必须丢弃,不能喂给宝宝。(频繁的挤奶不会加速母乳中的其他药物代谢。)关于吸奶,可以参考国际母乳会常见问题解答中的吸奶部分(英文网站:llli.org)。

Contact a La Leche League Leader for the most up-do-date information about the time period needed to sufficiently clear radioactivity from breastmilk.

如希望获得关于乳汁中放射性彻底消除时间的最新信息,可以联系母乳会哺乳辅导。

Some medications for overactive thyroid are not concentrated in human milk and result in minimal doses to the breastfed baby. If a mother is taking thyroid suppressants, she will need to tell her baby’s doctor so the baby can be monitored for thyroid levels. Weaning is usually not necessary. If a doctor insists on weaning, the mother is encouraged to seek a second opinion before weaning. When temporary weaning is recommended, it is important to be sure the risks and benefits have been fully evaluated. If you have questions about the medications you are taking, contact a La Leche League Leader.

有些治疗甲亢的药物不会聚集于母乳,对母乳宝宝的影响很小。如果母乳妈妈正在服用甲状腺功能抑制剂,那就要告诉儿科医生,以便对宝宝进行甲状腺水平监测。妈妈通常并不需要因此离乳。如果医生坚持暂停母乳喂养,我们鼓励妈妈在决定离乳前能试着再寻找第二种意见以进行比较。推荐暂时离乳时,妈妈必须确保已经充分评估过这样做的风险和益处。如果您对正在服用的药物有疑问,请联系母乳会哺乳辅导。

If radioactive compounds are used to treat an overactive thyroid, temporary weaning is necessary. The mother will need to pump and discard the milk during this time. Before a mother resumes breastfeeding, her milk must be checked for radioactivity. Your local LLL Leader will be able to share more information and offer support.

如果治疗甲亢的过程中,使用了放射性药物,那就必须暂时离乳。母乳妈妈在此期间需要吸出母乳并丢弃。在妈妈再次继续母乳喂养之前,她的母乳需要接受检测,以确定是否含有放射性。您当地的母乳会哺乳辅导可以与您分享更多的信息,并提供帮助。
