Employing statistical methodologies including mean ± standard deviation, median, and one-sample t-test, the study sought to analyze and delineate factors associated with morbidity, such as age, childbirth, lactation, and body mass index (BMI).Results: The average age of the 724 patients was 33.4 ± 5.5 years. Among them 54.94% were aged 30– 39 years, 65.16% were within five years after delivery, and 62.56% were breastfeeding for less than 6 months. The BMI of patients aged 30– 39 years was higher than that of the general Chinese population (P < 0.05). There was no significant correlation between smoking, oral contraceptives, trauma, and the incidence of the disease in this group.Conclusion: Non-puerperal mastitis is more prevalent among women of childbearing age, specifically those aged 30– 39 years, who breastfed for less than 6 months within the first five years after childbirth. In this age group, higher BMI is linked to increased morbidity.Keywords: mastitis, clinical feature, non-puerperal, retrospective study, pathogenesis related factors
