Research indicates breastfeeding can reduce the risk of breast cancer in women. Black and Hispanic women are more likely to die from breast cancer than non-Hispanic white women and are least likely to breastfeed. The current study was designed to evaluate women's knowledge of the link between breastfeeding and decreased breast cancer risk among a racially diverse cohort of pregnant women. Pregnant women 18 and older (N = 89; 48.4% black; 28% Hispanic) were recruited during a prenatal visit to complete a survey. Women indicated limited understanding of the association between breastfeeding and breast cancer risk reduction; less than 40% of black and white women indicated knowledge, while 64.7% of Hispanic women were aware of the association. These findings underscore the need for interventions to educate women about the protective benefits of breastfeeding as a strategy to reduce their breast cancer incidence and mortality.
研究表明，母乳喂养可以降低女性患乳腺癌的风险。与非西班牙裔白人女性相比，黑人和西班牙裔女性死于乳腺癌的可能性更高，而母乳喂养的可能性最低。本研究旨在评估在种族多样化的孕妇队列中，女性对母乳喂养与降低乳腺癌风险之间关联的认知。研究招募了 18 岁及以上的孕妇（N=89；48.4%为黑人；28%为西班牙裔），在产前检查时完成了一项调查。女性表示对母乳喂养与降低乳腺癌风险之间的关联了解有限；不到 40%的黑人和白人女性表示了解，而 64.7%的西班牙裔女性知道这种关联。这些发现强调了需要进行干预，教育女性母乳喂养的保护益处，以此作为降低乳腺癌发病率和死亡率的策略。
