Nipple inversion, pulled out with a rope, will it affect breastfeeding in the future?

Patient's question:

When I was a child, I had inverted nipples. Starting from puberty, for about six or seven years, I often used a rope to pull them out. Now they have been pulled out, but I don't know if it will affect breastfeeding in the future. Thank you:

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello! You should have breast hypoplasia leading to breast deformity, with a high incidence of nipple inversion, which can be as high as 40%.
Advice: Hello, breast inversion can be corrected through traction, and it will not affect breastfeeding after correction. Post-correction, it is necessary to strengthen care to prevent rebound. Ensure adequate protein intake and consume more fresh fruits and vegetables.
