Many new mothers are worried that breastfeeding after giving birth will cause their breasts to sag. This is definitely unacceptable for many women who love beauty. Although this is a relatively common situation, many people do not know the reason. Let's learn about why breasts sag after childbirth. 1. Internal reasons: 1. Breast sagging caused by breastfeeding Generally, after a mother stops breastfeeding after giving birth, the mammary alveolar ducts, glands and adipose tissue will atrophy due to the decrease in hormone levels, while the skin and supporting tissue will increase accordingly, which will cause sagging breasts. 2. Weight loss causes sagging breasts This is caused by losing weight too quickly, which causes the fat tissue and skin in the breast to become loose. It is more common in young and middle-aged women. Postpartum mothers may also cause breast sagging due to excessive weight loss in order to lose weight. 3. Breast sagging in the elderly As people age, their various functions decline, including their endocrine functions. Breast sagging in the elderly is caused by the obvious degeneration and atrophy of the skin, supporting tissues, fat and glands, so the breasts appear to be sagging like empty cysts. 2. External reasons: 1. Excessive dieting and insufficient protein intake When the body is in a state of hunger for a long time, it thinks it has entered a famine era and will inevitably mobilize stored fat and protein to cope with it. One of the main structural components of the breast is fat and collagen. The chest fat decreases, the skin becomes loose, and the chest muscles are lost. Malnutrition causes the glandular tissue to atrophy, and the overall chest tissue decreases. However, the connective tissue connecting the chest muscles and breasts does not decrease accordingly, so the breasts become smaller and sag. 2. Like to wash with very hot water Avoid using hot water to irritate the breasts when taking a bath, and don't soak in hot water for a long time. Otherwise, it will burn the stratum corneum on the surface of the skin, making the skin drier and drier, and the soft tissue of the breast more and more loose. The water temperature for bathing should be around 27 degrees. |
