How to deal with postpartum breast atrophy

Patient's question:

Patient Gender Description; Postpartum breast size reduction to which hospital to see, is it called breast atrophy

Doctor's answer:

1. Choose a suitable bra and wear it every day. No matter how firm the breasts were before, it is necessary to wear a bra every day to provide good support for the gradually growing breasts; choosing the right size bra is very important. A too-tight bra will compress the breasts and affect the secondary development of the mammary glands. Too loose, it won't provide the desired support.
2. Apply some natural skin care oil, which can protect the breast skin and reduce friction.
3. Keep the nipples clean. Apply vegetable oil (olive oil, sesame oil, soybean oil) to the nipples to soften the surface scale and scabs, then rinse with warm water.
4. After weaning, do not lose weight quickly. Extend the body shaping plan to more than a year to avoid breast "shrinkage" caused by improper weight loss.
5. Persist in massaging the breasts every day: Use both hands to draw circles around the breasts from the inside out twenty times, then do the same in the opposite direction twenty times; spread the fingers, gently lift and grasp both breasts fifteen times or more.
6. If you notice a tendency for the breasts to sag, use a breast firming massage cream in a timely manner.
