During pregnancy, under the action of estrogen, the nipples and nipples will appear darker, that is, the color will become darker on the original basis. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not need to be treated clinically. After the pregnancy is over, that is, after the pregnant woman gives birth, as the body's estrogen level decreases, the darkening of the nipples will improve significantly, and basically return to their previous appearance. In clinical medicine, you only need to pay attention to breast care, clean the breast area with hot water every day, and pay attention. If there is a retracted nipple, you must apply local hot compresses and gently stretch the nipple. Correcting this condition is beneficial to the feeding of the newborn baby. During pregnancy, you should have regular prenatal checkups to see if there are any abnormalities. It is normal for nipples to darken during pregnancy. This is because after pregnancy, various hormones in the body will undergo certain changes, which will have an impact on every part of the body. Darkening nipples is only one aspect of the body. In addition, there may be lumps around the nipples, darkening and thickening of body hair, and lower abdominal discomfort, back pain, leg pain, gastrointestinal discomfort, vomiting and other changes in the body in the early stages of pregnancy. There is no need to worry or take medicine. After the baby is born, the female hormones in the body will return to normal and the changes and symptoms in the body will subside. It is a normal physiological phenomenon for women to have dark nipples during pregnancy. Not only will the nipples become dark, but the nipples will also become significantly enlarged. Since it is a normal physiological manifestation, no treatment is required. This is because after pregnancy, the fetus will secrete a lot of estrogen, which stimulates the growth of the mammary glands, and also has the participation of pituitary prolactin, placental lactogen, and aldosterone, causing the nipples to enlarge and darken, and become easily erect. In addition, the color of the areola will become darker, and the sebaceous glands on the outside will thicken, producing scattered lump-like protrusions, which are called Montessori nodes. |
