dc.descriptionThis research focuses on identifying and analyzing the factors contributing to the abandonment of exclusive breastfeeding in Ecuador. Using a mixed-method approach that includes surveys and interviews, several key factors influencing this practice were identified, such as socioeconomic, labor, cultural, and knowledge-related conditions. Findings indicate that mothers with lower incomes and those working in the informal sector face greater difficulties in maintaining exclusive breastfeeding due to the lack of paid maternity leave and the early return to work. Additionally, the lack of adequate knowledge about the benefits of breastfeeding and proper breastfeeding techniques, along with cultural influences and the lack of family and community support, significantly contribute to the abandonment of exclusive breastfeeding. The consequences of abandoning exclusive breastfeeding are severe, including a higher risk of infections and diseases in babies, as well as increased health risks for mothers, such as breast and ovarian cancer. The study recommends implementing supportive labor policies, strengthening educational programs, fostering community and family support, and improving access to health services to support mothers in the practice of exclusive breastfeeding.es_ES

dc.description.abstractLa presente investigación se centra en identificar y analizar los factores que contribuyen al abandono de la lactancia materna exclusiva en Ecuador. Utilizando una metodología mixta que incluye encuestas y entrevistas, se encontraron varios factores clave que influyen en esta práctica, como las condiciones socioeconómicas, laborales, culturales y de conocimiento. Los hallazgos indican que las madres con menores ingresos y aquellas que trabajan en el sector informal enfrentan mayores dificultades para mantener la lactancia materna exclusiva debido a la falta de licencias de maternidad pagadas y el regreso temprano al trabajo. Además, la falta de conocimiento adecuado sobre los beneficios de la lactancia materna y las técnicas de amamantamiento, junto con influencias culturales y la falta de apoyo familiar y comunitario, contribuyen significativamente al abandono de la lactancia materna exclusiva. Las consecuencias del abandono de la lactancia materna exclusiva son graves, incluyendo un mayor riesgo de infecciones y enfermedades en los bebés, así como mayores riesgos de salud para las madres, como el cáncer de mama y de ovario. El estudio recomienda implementar políticas laborales de apoyo, fortalecer los programas educativos, fomentar el apoyo comunitario y familiar, y mejorar el acceso a servicios de salud para apoyar a las madres en la práctica de la lactancia materna exclusiva.es_ES
