Can pregnant women correct nipple invagination with nipple orthosis? Before preparing for pregnancy, it is best to consider taking measures and using nipple orthosis to correct it! For friends who are not so sensitive to the chest, you can also consider using nipple orthosis in the first trimester, but pay attention to moderation. If you feel uncomfortable, you should stop using it immediately. In the second and third trimester, it is generally not recommended for pregnant mothers to use nipple orthosis to correct nipple invagination, so as not to stimulate the uterus and cause severe contraction of the uterus, which is not conducive to the healthy growth of the fetus.

If you are eager to improve nipple invagination and breast-feeding pregnant mothers, you can also use daily nipple massage, and insisting on massage can also improve the symptoms of nipple invagination. For example, wash the breast with warm water every morning and evening, then gently hold the inverted nipple with your fingers and pull it out slowly. While pulling, gently massage the nipple with the thumb and forefinger of the other hand for 5- 10 minutes each time. Of course, if you feel any discomfort during the massage, please stop the massage and wait patiently for postpartum nipple correction. After all, the healthy growth of the fetus is the most important!

Nipple orthosis can be said to be a mild treatment tool, but for the safety of pregnant women and fetuses, it is best to consult a doctor when using nipple orthosis during pregnancy.

Correction method of nipple invagination Experts point out that nipple invagination is mainly congenital, but it can also be caused by trauma or surgery, breast tumor and fibroplasia after mastitis. The main cause of congenital nipple invagination is the dysplasia of smooth muscle of nipple and areola. These muscle fibers are pulled inward, and the lack of supporting tissue under the nipple forms nipple invagination. Entrapment usually occurs on both sides at the same time or unilaterally. The inverted nipple can come back as long as it is squeezed or pulled slightly, which belongs to mild nipple inversion, also known as reversible nipple inversion. This kind of nipple invagination can be corrected by non-surgical conservative treatment, and the best time for treatment is before marriage or early pregnancy. Specific methods include manual traction and instrument traction.

Straight breasts are the focus of women's beauty, and nipples are the "delicate points" in the focus. If nipple invagination is found, women had better correct it in time. The following methods can be selected according to different situations.

The first is manual pulling. Adolescence is an important period of breast development and correction of nipple invagination. Often pulling the nipple can make the breast protrude, increase the supporting force of the surrounding skin, and play the role of "shaping". Several times a day. After a long time, the nipple naturally protrudes outward. If you can't pull it out, you can first push the skin near the nipple of the breast outward.

The second is suction therapy. After pregnancy, use a breast pump to suck the nipple several times a day, and use its negative pressure to expand the nipple.

Third, the use of nipple orthosis is to treat nipple flattening or depression.
