This study was observational analytic cohort study design (prospective) because there were observations on two groups of postpartum women (CED and non CED) who were given high doses of vitamin A. The variables studied were breast milk retinol and serum retinol were measured three times. Maternal characteristics and family characteristics were measured using questionnaire instruments. Consumption patterns were measured using food frequency questionnaire while consumption levels were measured using once 24-hour recall questionnaires. Data analysis used independent samples t-test to understand difference among CED group and non CED group pre-supplementation, 1-month and 2-months post-supplementation. Paired samples t-test to understand difference among pre-supplementation and post-supplementation in both of groups. Result showed that no significant difference between pre-supplementation, 1-months and 2-months postsupplementation on breastmilk retinol (p = 0,517; p= 0,209; p=0,990). The result showed that there were no significant difference pre-supplementation, 1-months and 2-months post-supplementation on serum retinol (p=0,945; p=0,732; p=0,661). Conclusion: there was lack of the benefits on breastmilk retinol and serum retinol after high dose vitamin A supplementation among CED and non CED postpartum women.
