Abstract
Cracking and sore nipple cause cessation of breastfeeding. Aim: to demonstrate that ecological EVOO provides benefits for nipple pain, nipple cracking and breastfeeding duration, compared to human milk. Randomized clinical trial with 124 women, term delivery, ≥18 years, excluding presence of injuries, use of products, refusal of treatment. Random assignment stratified by age. Nipple pain messaured by numerical scale, nipple cracks by exploration and breastfeeding duration by questionnarie. Analysis: using contingency tables, Student's t, Pearson / Spearman correlations. Clinical impact estimated with Cohen's d statistic and Wald. α = .05 significance. EVOOe produced less cracks in left nipple in primiparous during first week (p <.01). No differences in pain neither breastfeeding duration between groups. Fewer cracks in women with early onset breastfeeding (p <.05). Longer breastfeeding duration in breastfeeding education (p <.05). EVOOe is equal to or more effective than human milk for cracking and sore nipple and breastfeeding duration.
