ALEITAMENTO MATERNO: benefícios para a saúde materno-infantil e fatores que influenciam a amamentação exclusiva

Abstract

Introdução: A amamentação é fundamental para a saúde da mãe e do bebê, sendo reconhecida pela Organização Mundial da Saúde e pelo Ministério da Saúde como uma prática essencial para o desenvolvimento infantil e a proteção imunológica. Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar os benefícios do aleitamento materno exclusivo, identificando fatores que influenciam sua prática e os desafios enfrentados pelas mães. Metodologia: Realizou-se uma revisão integrativa da literatura, envolvendo seis etapas: formulação da pergunta de pesquisa, coleta de dados, análise crítica e apresentação dos resultados. A coleta de dados ocorreu utilizando bases como MEDLINE, LILACS, SCIELO e Google Acadêmico. Foram aplicados descritores em Ciências da Saúde, como "Aleitamento Materno" e "Saúde Materna", e a pesquisa foi limitada a estudos originais, revisões sistemáticas e metanálises. A análise considerou o rigor metodológico e as implicações dos resultados encontrados nos estudos selecionados. Resultados: A revisão revelou que o aleitamento materno exclusivo oferece benefícios significativos para a saúde do bebê, como a redução de doenças infecciosas e melhora no desenvolvimento cognitivo e emocional. Para as mães, os benefícios incluem recuperação pós-parto mais rápida e redução de riscos de câncer de mama e ovário. Além disso, fatores como apoio familiar, políticas públicas e contexto socioeconômico influenciam diretamente a prática da amamentação exclusiva. Desafios como o retorno precoce ao trabalho e dificuldades com a produção de leite foram destacados, evidenciando a importância de estratégias de suporte, como consultores de lactação e centros de apoio à amamentação. Conclusão: A amamentação exclusiva, apesar de seus benefícios comprovados, enfrenta obstáculos que requerem apoio estrutural e educacional para garantir a sua prática efetiva, principalmente em contextos socioculturais e econômicos adversos. Palavras-chave: Aleitamento Materno; Saúde Materna; Amamentação Exclusiva; Benefícios.

Introduction: Breastfeeding is essential for the health of both mother and baby and is recognized by the World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health of Brazil as a fundamental practice for child development and immune protection. Objective: This study aims to analyze the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding, identifying factors that influence its practice and the challenges faced by mothers. Methodology: An integrative literature review was conducted, involving six stages: formulation of the research question, data collection, critical analysis, and presentation of results. Data collection was carried out using databases such as MEDLINE, LILACS, SciELO, and Google Scholar. Health Sciences descriptors such as “Breastfeeding” and “Maternal Health” were applied, and the research was limited to original studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. The analysis considered the methodological rigor and the implications of the findings presented in the selected studies. Results: The review revealed that exclusive breastfeeding provides significant benefits for infant health, such as reducing infectious diseases and improving cognitive and emotional development. For mothers, benefits include faster postpartum recovery and reduced risks of breast and ovarian cancer. Furthermore, factors such as family support, public policies, and socioeconomic context directly influence the practice of exclusive breastfeeding. Challenges such as early return to work and difficulties with milk production were highlighted, emphasizing the importance of support strategies, including lactation consultants and breastfeeding support centers. Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding, despite its proven benefits, faces obstacles that require structural and educational support to ensure its effective practice, especially in adverse sociocultural and economic contexts. Keywords: Breastfeeding; Maternal Health; Exclusive Breastfeeding; Benefits.
