With the many advantages of breastfeeding, breast augmentation candidates who are planning on becoming pregnant later wonder if they can be able to breastfeed safely after receiving implants.
Any operation does have side effects, and while there is a chance that breast augmentation can affect the ability to breast feed more than likely you'll be able to continue to breast feed normally and safely. Decisions you make, along with your surgeon, will minimize the prospect that breast-feeding will be affected.
Two sorts of incisions for breast augmentation are around the nipple, and the inframammary incision, which is on the crease on the underside of the breast. The inframammary incision causes zero division of milk glandular tissue or ducts, and reduces the danger of any negative impact on breastfeeding. Incisions round the nipple do divide a number of the milk glands, which makes it a little more risky, however breastfeeding has a high likelihood of being successful with either incision.
There have been numerous studies on the chance of babies breastfeeding from mothers with breast implants, and so far no risks have been found. It's safe for babies to breastfeed when their mother has undergone a breast implant procedure.
Many women with breast implants select not to breast-feed and I think this proportion might be beyond that of the general public. I assume that there is a fear that breast-feeding will "ruin" the results of their surgery. While it's true that pregnancy can cause a droop of the breasts this is a natural occurrence in women with or without a previous "boob job". There was an interesting study about three years ago that suggested pregnancy affected the breasts equally with or without breast-feeding, although my experience suggests otherwise I found the study to be interesting.
Women who would like to enhance the shape or size of their breasts will more than likely not have their ability to breastfeed be impacted by their surgery, although there is a possibility. Discuss your considerations with your surgeon and together you can make choices that will minimize the risks while enjoying the results. - 31824
