Purpose. This study explored the effects of recent childbirth and recent breastfeeding on the risk of recurrence in patients with postpartum breast cancer (PPBC). Materials and Methods. A bidirectional cohort study was conducted in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. 1013 young female breast cancer patients between May 2003 and October 2019 were enrolled. Breast cancer cases were grouped according to the time between giving birth or weaning and diagnosis. The end point of the analysis was disease-free survival (DFS). Results. Breast cancer patients diagnosed within 2 years after parturition showed more tumor characteristics that represented poor prognosis and remained at an increased risk for recurrence, even after adjusting for confounding factors (HR = 1.83,  p = 0.035 ). When the analysis was limited to patients with ER positive or histological grades I and II, they had a higher risk of recurrence. When weaning was used as the grouping node, patients diagnosed within 2 years after weaning did not show a higher risk of recurrence after adjustment, even when analysis was nearly limited to ER-positive patients. Conclusion. Recent reproductive history is an independent prognostic factor and seems to have a stronger impact on breast cancer with lower malignancy. In addition, the effect of recent childbirth on the recurrence of young breast cancer is significantly stronger than that of recent breastfeeding.
