The patients with a breastfeeding time of fewer than 6 months and equal or more than 6 months were compared in terms of sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, scale scores, and current or lifelong psychiatric disorders.\n\nRESULTS: The percentages of the history of psychiatric disorder (p = .009), the number of comorbid psychiatric disorders (p = .020), and the patients diagnosed with current (p = .001) and lifetime (p = .004) panic disorder or lifetime vaginismus (p = .019) were significantly higher in the patients\nwith a breastfeeding time fewer than 6 months compared to the patients with more than 6 months. While the duration of maternal (p = .010) and paternal education (p = .004) was significantly higher, the birth order was significantly lower (p = .010) in the patients with a breastfeeding time of fewer than 6 months compared to the patients with more than 6 months.\n\nCONCLUSION: Breastfeeding time of more than 6 months seems favorable in terms of the absence of current or lifetime psychiatric disorder, especially panic disorder and vaginismus, compared to the patients with fewer than 6 months.\n\nCite this article as: Ayta\u00e7, H.
