Is neonatal jaundice related to breastfeeding

Neonatal jaundice is associated with breast-feeding and is characterized by neonatal jaundice soon after breast-feeding, which may last for weeks to months and is otherwise normal. It is divided into early-onset and late-onset types. Early-onset and neonatal physiological jaundice appear at similar times and reach peak values, but breast-fed jaundice has a higher peak value than physiological jaundice. Late-onset jaundice tends to become apparent after physiological jaundice. Breast-fed jaundice usually appears between 7 and 14 days after birth. Whether it is early or late jaundice, jaundice subsides after three to five days of stopping breastfeeding. If breastfeeding is resumed, jaundice will no longer appear, and a few jaundice will not reappear. Jastritis can gradually subside with age.
