Small or inverted nipples: how to correct the defect?

a woman covers her nipples how to enlarge them

Surprisingly, breast size for many women is not the most important point. The shape of the nipples also worries the fair sex. Especially those of us who are planning to become a mother and breastfeed a baby in the near future. In addition, the ugly appearance of the nipples inspires, to put it mildly, moral "suffering" in moments of close communication with the "man of dreams" and also destroys the lady's self-esteem. What can be done in this situation? How to enlarge the nipples?

What statistics will say about the "highlight" of the female breast

Nipple enlargement is an urgent task for many women. The fact is that about ten percent of women have inverted (or even flat) nipples. While you are expecting a baby, when the expectant mother is trying to think carefully about all the details of the upcoming childcare, this "uncomfortable" shape is a particular cause for concern. After all, HB is a great opportunity to give your baby many beneficial substances that protect immunity and health. A flat, inverted nipple is sometimes considered a sign of shortness of the milk ducts. What can you do if you are familiar with this problem? As practice shows, it is very likely that this fine detail will be corrected. The main thing is to have patience.

Before we think about how to enlarge the nipple, let's explain the difference between flat and inverted nipples. It is not the same thing. Flat nipples do not react to the cold, the shape does not change from tightening and pressing. As for the inverted nipples, they "hide" even deeper from such manipulations and exposure to temperatures.

The causes of this pathology are usually identified among the following:

  • We can talk about genetic predisposition. Usually a woman's mother or grandmother gave the pregnant woman such a dubious "gift".
  • Maybe there is some kind of illness that the expectant mother does not know about? Unfortunately, this can be bypassed-but not unless you're a techie who knows what he's doing.
  • Perhaps the woman wore very tight underwear for a long time.
  • Sometimes we talk about pathologies of development of the mammary gland.

How to fix the situation?

It is no secret that precisely because of the inverted flat nipples, many women of previous generations were forced to refuse to breastfeed their baby. The offspring simply could not catch the areola and adapt to the "extraordinary" breast of the mother. Fortunately, modern medicine in this sense has also come a long way.

There are now many options - from soft surgical correction to false nipples, that will allow you to feed the desired baby with useful breast milk.

We develop flat nipples

To this end, experts have come up with a series of exercises that help stretch the "stretches" of the flat chest. The last two months of pregnancy take a few minutes a day to develop problematic breasts. By pressing the nipple rhythmically for three minutes a day, you can learn to have, albeit short-term, tangible results.

The second exercise is more active: grab each nipple "at the root" with your thumb, middle and forefinger and gently turn it in different directions. It is the duty of the expectant mother to do everything very carefully. There are two reasons for this: the first is the thin skin in this area. Excessive diligence can lead to cracks and abrasions over time. Second, excessive nipple stimulation can cause labor to begin. There are also positive aspects of the method: this massage makes the breasts sensitive to touch, something that has a positive effect on a woman's personal life.

Surgical solution to the problem

If motherhood is only planned and the nipples, in the opinion of the owner, are not corrected with ordinary "gymnastics", it makes sense to visit a plastic surgeon. A competent specialist will be able to rid a woman of an annoying problem completely without problems.

This intervention does not require long-term hospitalization, general anesthesia and other "horrors". In addition, even a woman does not experience discomfort.

There are several types of mini-surgeries of this type:

  • The mildest correction is considered for those who, having become a mother, want to feed their baby with breast milk. The nipple lactation function remains intact.
  • The second type can not be called frugal in relation to GW. It is aimed at women who only seek outwardly to bring their breasts closer to the ideal. The aesthetic defect is corrected. During the procedure, milky streams are drawn to hold the nipple area from the inside. Visually, the breasts become more beautiful, but a woman will no longer be able to breastfeed with such breasts.

"Bloodless" ways

You can stretch the nipples using the special pads mentioned above. The nipple corrector is a great tool for those who have problematic breasts. They usually look like silicone pads, which make the "mound" more convenient for breastfeeding. By the way, this device can be useful for women with very vulnerable nipples, prone to cracks.

breast nipple patches

Many women, whose breasts are far from perfect, pull the nipple with a breast pump. This is a temporary measure, or rather, the result is short-lived. But it is very possible to feed the child naturally.

Pulling the nipples with a vacuum cleaner is a relatively "fresh" method. The woman wears special accessories that pull and fasten the nipple inside. A special accessory is placed on the nipples. The air is absorbed with a syringe. By the way, such caps are invisible under clothes. You should wear them for about seven to eight hours daily. If you follow all the conditions of the manufacturer, after two months the nipples will have the right shape. There is a "but": before deciding on these semi-sadistic manipulations, it is recommended to visit a mammologist. There should be no pain when wearing the caps.

Either way, a girl with atypical nipples is advised to consult her gynecologist about a method of resolving this delicate problem even before the baby is born. The doctor will tell you which exercises will "save" the condition and which will harm you.
