Systematic Review Breast Engorgement Cabbage Leaf
The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of cold cabbage leaf application on postpartum breast engorgement and pain. After a thorough search of Turkish and English databases, eight studies were included for analysis out of 25,996 results. The pooled results showed that cold cabbage leaf application led to a significant reduction in breast pain, but did not demonstrate a significant effect on breast engorgement. The researchers concluded that while this method effectively alleviates breast pain, further experimental studies are needed to better understand its impact on breast engorgement.
