Metodos: Se realizaun estudio observacional analitico con mujeres que aceptaron un mettodo anticonceptivo inmediatamente despues de un aborto en un hospital publico peruano (N = 399). De ellas, se contactó telefónicamente a 175 participantes seis meses después.
Resultados: Solo el 39,42% de las mujeres mantuvo el uso del método anticonceptivo. Se hallo una asociacion significativa entre la edad (p = 0,049) y la nacionalidad venezolana (p = 0,043) con el uso de metodos anticonceptivos seis meses despues del aborto.

Background: The nutrition of a newborn during the initial six months is crucial, and exclusive breastfeeding is advised to fulfill these requirements. Nonetheless, numerous variables, including employed mothers, sometimes obstruct attaining exclusive breastfeeding objectives. The WHO established Global Nutrition Targets 2025 aiming for at least 50% of newborns to be exclusively breastfed; however, current data indicates that some regions, including Indonesia, have failed to achieve these targets.
Case report: Our presentation examines the continuity of care activities of a 28-year-old woman, a working mother who dedicated herself to exclusive breastfeeding upon returning to work. The care encompasses health promotion, the advantages of exclusive breastfeeding, nutrition to enhance breast milk production, engagement of support networks, preparation of exclusive breastfeeding management, and oxytocin massage techniques. There were factors influencing the success of exclusive breastfeeding, such as the hospital policy forbidding formula milk distribution to newborns. This policy relies on the adherence of healthcare professionals who encourage and motivate mothers to maintain exclusive breastfeeding without introducing formula milk. This support is provided during pregnancy and extends into the postpartum period, with the expectation that continuity of care initiatives will significantly benefit aided mothers and enhance the effectiveness of exclusive breastfeeding among working women.
Conclusion: Ongoing support from family and continuity of care from health professionals are crucial in enabling working women to breastfeed exclusively. Engagement of family members and modifications to workplace policies can enhance the likelihood of successful exclusive breastfeeding.
