Small or inverted nipples: how to correct the defect?

a woman covers her nipples as she enlarges them

Oddly enough, 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. Furthermore, the ugly appearance of the nipples inspires, to put it mildly, moral "inconveniences" in moments of close communication with the "dream man", and also destroys the woman's self-esteem. What can be done in this situation? How to enlarge the nipples?

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

Nipple enlargement is a very urgent task for many women. The fact is that about ten percent of women have inverted (or even flat) nipples. In anticipation of the baby, when the expectant mother is trying to carefully think through all the details of the upcoming childcare, this "uncomfortable" form is of particular concern. After all, HB is an excellent opportunity to give the baby a lot of useful substances that protect immunity and health. A flat, inverted nipple is in some cases considered a sign of shortening of the milk ducts. What can you do if you know this problem? As practice shows, it is quite possible to correct this delicate detail. The important thing is to have patience.

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

The causes of this pathology can usually be found 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 disease that the expectant mother is not aware of? Unfortunately, some types of cancer manifest in this way.
  • Perhaps the woman has been wearing tight underwear for too long.
  • Sometimes we talk about pathologies of the development of the mammary gland.

How can the situation be resolved?

It is no secret that it is precisely because of inverted flat nipples that many women of past generations have been forced to refuse to breastfeed their baby. The offspring simply could not grasp the areola and adjust to the "extraordinary" mother's breast. Fortunately, modern medicine in this sense has also advanced a long way.

Now there are many options: from soft surgical correction to false nipples, which 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 flat chest "mounds". The last two months of pregnancy take a few minutes a day to develop problem breasts. By rhythmically squeezing your nipple for three minutes a day, you can learn how to achieve tangible results, even if in the short term.

The second exercise is more active: grab each nipple "at the root" with your thumb, middle finger and index finger and gently twist it in different directions. The task of the expectant mother is to do everything very carefully. There are two reasons for this: the first is the delicate skin in this area. Excessive diligence can lead to cracks and abrasions over time. Second, too much nipple stimulation can trigger the onset of labor. There are also positive aspects of the method: this massage makes the breasts sensitive to touch, which has a positive effect on a woman's personal life.

Surgical solution of the problem

If motherhood is only planned and the nipples, according to the owner, are not corrected by ordinary "gymnastics", it makes sense to visit a plastic surgeon. A competent specialist will be able to relieve a woman from an annoying problem absolutely without any problems.

This surgery does not require long-term hospitalization, general anesthesia and other "horrors". Moreover, even a woman does not cope with discomfort.

There are several types of mini surgeries of this type:

  • The most delicate correction is considered for those who, having become mothers, want to breastfeed their baby with breast milk. The breastfeeding function of the nipple remains intact.
  • The second type cannot be called parsimonious in relation to GW. It is performed for women who seek only outwardly to bring their breasts closer to the ideal. The cosmetic defect is correct. During the procedure, milky streams are incised 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 a breast.

"Bloodless" ways

You can stretch your nipples using the special pads mentioned above. A nipple corrector is a great tool for anyone with breast problems. They usually look like silicone pads, making the "mound" more comfortable for breastfeeding. By the way, this device can be useful for women with very vulnerable nipples, prone to cracking.

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 quite possible to feed the baby naturally.

Vacuuming nipples is a relatively "cool" method. The woman wears special accessories that pull and fix the nipple inside. A special attachment is put on the nipples. Air is drawn in with a syringe. By the way, such hoods are invisible under clothes. You need to wear them for about seven to eight hours a day. If you follow all the manufacturer's conditions, then after two months the nipples will take on the correct shape. There is a "but": before deciding on these semi-root manipulations, it is recommended to visit a mammologist. There should be no pain while wearing the caps.

One way or another, a girl with non-standard nipples is advised to consult with her gynecologist about a method of solving this delicate problem even before the baby is born. Your doctor will tell you which exercises will "save" the situation and which ones will harm you.
