Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding is a key strategy for improving infant health and survival; however, its achievement remains suboptimal in many countries. Family support has been consistently identified as a major interpersonal determinant influencing exclusive breastfeeding success, highlighting the need for a comprehensive synthesis of recent empirical evidence. This study aims to examine and synthesize findings from empirical research on the role of family support in exclusive breastfeeding success through a narrative literature review. Literature searches were conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, covering publications from 2020 to 2025. Of the 864 articles initially identified, 15 studies were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria and substantive relevance to the review focus. The synthesis indicates that family support, particularly from husbands and extended family members, is consistently associated with higher exclusive breastfeeding success, with reported odds ranging from approximately two to more than threefold across studies. Family support contributes to enhanced breastfeeding self efficacy, reduced postpartum stress, decreased prelacteal feeding practices, and the establishment of a supportive home environment for breastfeeding. The mechanisms underlying these effects involve interacting psychological, hormonal, and social pathways. These findings underscore the importance of family centered approaches in exclusive breastfeeding promotion, suggesting that health interventions should not focus solely on mothers but actively engage husbands and family members as key partners in supporting breastfeeding practices

Abstract

Background: Anemia is a persistent public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly among adolescent girls, with prevalence reaching 48.9% in 2018. Despite school-based iron and folic acid (IFA) supplementation programs, major implementation challenges remain. Objective: To evaluate the implementation of IFA policies for adolescents in Indonesia and to identify global strategies that can strengthen national anemia prevention efforts. Method: A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, focusing on studies published between 2019 and 2024. PubMed, Google Scholar, and official Ministry of Health sources were searched using predefined eligibility criteria. Data from eligible studies were synthesized using thematic analysis. Search strings included terms such as: “iron and folic acid supplementation” OR “iron–folic acid” OR “IFA”, combined with “adolescent” OR “school-age girls”, and “policy” OR “program implementation” OR “coverage” OR “adherence”. Results: Five studies met the inclusion criteria. Four main barriers to effective IFA implementation were identified: (1) low adherence due to side effects and misconceptions; (2) logistical weaknesses in tablet distribution; (3) limited stakeholder engagement; and (4) lack of robust monitoring systems. Evidence from other countries shows that school-based education, digital monitoring, and community involvement can improve coverage and compliance. Conclusion: Indonesia’s IFA policy needs strengthening in both structural and behavioral domains. Integrating education, digital tracking, and peer involvement into existing school-based programs may enhance adherence and long-term sustainability.
