CASTRO-SANCHEZ, Ana Elisa; AVILA-ORTIZ, María Natividad; ZAMBRANO-MORENO, Adriana e NUNEZ-ROCHA, Georgina Mayela. Perception and intention to practice breastfeeding in adolescents in northeastern Mexico. Horiz. sanitario [online]. 2023, vol.22, n.1, pp.163-171. Epub 16-Dez-2022. ISSN 2007-7459. https://doi.org/10.19136/hs.a22n1.5086.
Objective:
To analyze the perception and intention to practice breastfeeding (BF) in adolescents of both genders who have not yet been parents.
Material and Methods:
This was a qualitative study based on grounded theory with empirical saturation. Twenty-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with students between 15 and 18 years of age in preparatory schools in Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico.
Results:
Four patterns on the perception and intention of practicing breastfeeding were identified: traditional; undecided; rejection; and egalitarian.
Conclusions:
The intention to support or practice BF is related to gender identities and the project of having children and / or a personal- labor development project. There is convergence between different perceptions and intentions to practice BF in the future, which aims to review policies in this area.
