Abstract

mothers should practice exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) of their infants for 6 months. Despite the numerous advantages of EBF, the practice remains infrequently adopted. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the various methods used for health education programs and the effectiveness of the programs in improving exclusive breastfeeding. Methods: The search involved multiple databases. The database searched included Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Medline. Titles were checked to exclude unrelated articles. Studies published between January 2016 and July 2024. Results:  Ten articles were identified as relevant, published in English, and assessed exclusive breastfeeding. The educational approach included verbal methods (such as discussion, teaching, peer counselling, demonstration, audio‑visual aids, video presentations, and phone calls) and written methods (such as breastfeeding booklets, general pregnancy booklets, handbooks, and leaflets. There is evidence that health education intervention increases exclusive breastfeeding Conclusion: The group discussion method proved to be the most effective and also more cost-efficient compared to the one-to-one method.
