In family factors, 63.7% have family support, 54.9% have been abandoned by their partner, also with 72.5% no domestic violence was found and 66.5% were not influenced by negative experiences. The work factors: 47.8% returned to their work environment, 18.1% returned to their studies, 58.9% did not have breastfeeding hours and 70.1% did not have breastfeeding hours. However, in personal factors at the level of knowledge, 75.2% recognize the nutritional benefits of breast milk; on the other hand, at the level of complications, 56% suffered from pain when breastfeeding and 24.7% presented cracks in the nipple, 43.4% felt despair and helplessness and 34.1% felt stress. Conclusions: The most frequent reasons for abandoning exclusive breastfeeding were family and work factors, since in the absence of support from both, successful breastfeeding would not be achieved.
