The harm of maternal nipple retraction

In fact, it is not easy for a female friend to be a mother. She may be under a lot of pressure. Even after giving birth to a child, she may suffer from retracted nipples. Let us learn about the dangers of retracted nipples.

Main hazards:

1. The inverted nipple area is difficult to clean and is prone to accumulation of dirt, secondary infection, inflammation, and interference with breastfeeding.

2. It is detrimental to bodybuilding and affects breastfeeding.

3. Due to the inverted nipples, they are often forcibly pulled out during breastfeeding. At this time, the nipples are very delicate. Once collided, they are easily damaged, ruptured and bleeding, which can cause infection of the nipples and even the entire breast, and eventually mastitis.

4. Nipples are very important sexual sensitive points for women, and the sexual desire of many women is achieved through nipple stimulation. Once the nipples are inverted, it is difficult to provide effective sexual stimulation and may even affect the man's sexual desire.

Before puberty, women's breasts do not develop and their nipples are very small. After puberty, as hormone levels in the body change and menstruation comes, breasts begin to develop and nipples gradually grow larger and more prominent. Although the nipples of unmarried women and non-pregnant women are smaller, they all protrude above the areola plane. If part or all of the nipple is lower than the areola plane, or even concave inward and sunken under the skin, resulting in a local crater-like shape, this is called inverted nipple (retracted nipple).

The above article gives you a detailed introduction to the dangers of retracted nipples in postpartum women. I believe that everyone has a relatively preliminary understanding of it. Therefore, in daily life, if such a situation occurs, go to the hospital for corrective surgery in time.
