Sexual and gender minority (SGM) parents may face distinct embodied, social, and healthcare-related factors that shape lactation and access to support. This study aimed to synthesise and interpret existing qualitative research on SGM parents\u2019 experiences of lactation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic literature review following a meta-ethnographic method developed by Noblit and Hare was conducted.

SGM parents may not conform to one or more of these assumptions, which can create barriers to positive lactation and infant-feeding experiences. These findings highlight the need for inclusive and affirming lactation care, as well as intersectional research on how identity markers shape SGM parents\u2019 experiences. Prejudice, cis- and heteronormative assumptions, and limited professional knowledge indicate important gaps in current healthcare practice.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13006-026-00897-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,21]],"date-time":"2026-09-21T09:23:52Z","timestamp":1789982632000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sexual and gender minority parents\u2019 experiences of lactation: a meta-ethnographic review"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Malena Chronholm","family":"B\u00f8yesen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2792-3142","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karolina","family":"Linden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5392-0455","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lisa","family":"Goldkuhl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"897_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"102592","DOI":"10.1016\/j.midw.2019.102592","volume":"81","author":"K Linde","year":"2020","unstructured":"Linde K, Lehnig F, Nagl M, Kersting A.
