Breast sagging and shrinkage after breastfeeding

Women's breasts will be fuller after giving birth because the breasts need to store milk for the baby to eat and provide nutrition for the baby's development. During this period, women's breasts may sometimes feel swollen and painful. Many women find that their breasts sag and shrink after breastfeeding, and they worry that they have some disease. So, what exactly causes breast sagging and atrophy after breastfeeding?

Methods/Steps

Reasons for sagging breasts: After breastfeeding, the hormone level in the body decreases, and the main components of the breasts, some glands and fat, shrink. Moreover, during pregnancy and lactation, the breasts sag due to the stretching of the skin and fibrous tissue caused by the development of the mammary glands and the filling of milk. The degree of breast sagging is directly proportional to the number of pregnancies and breastfeeding. For most women, they may only have one child, so there is no need to worry too much.

Breast ptosis correction surgery: With the improvement of medical level, people have faster and more direct ways to solve the problem. According to your own physical condition, you should go to a regular hospital and never believe the hype of small beauty clinics! But it also requires a certain financial foundation.

Dietary adjustment: Because the breasts are composed of connective tissue and adipose tissue, and the main component of connective tissue is collagen. Collagen has a nutritional and health-care effect on the breasts. Eat more foods containing collagen, such as pig's trotters, pig skin, peanuts, soy products, dairy products, etc.! Increased estrogen can promote breast development, and VB is a necessary component for synthesizing estrogen, and VE can regulate the secretion of estrogen, so you should eat more lean meat, eggs, carrots, lotus root, sesame, etc.!

Perform chest exercises: Do some chest exercises and more chest expansion exercises. In your spare time, don't forget to exercise, such as deep breathing, moving your limbs and waist. You can choose some chest exercises that suit you. You must persist in doing them to see the results. Pay attention to your sitting and standing posture, keep your head up and chest out, do not lie or lean on the table when working, and keep a distance of 15 cm. Don't sleep on your stomach, it's bad for your breasts!

The menstrual period is the best time for breast enhancement: during the menstrual period, the secretion of estrogen increases. You can eat more foods containing vitamin B and collagen, such as pig's trotters, peanuts, soy products, etc. Applying essential oils for chest massage, lying on your back before going to bed, and doing chest expansion exercises will help make the breasts fuller and firmer.

Develop good living habits: be in a good mood, pay attention to your diet, don’t go on a diet, exercise more, and don’t sleep on your stomach. An irregular lifestyle will directly affect metabolism and hormone secretion, which in turn will affect breast changes.
