What is the cause of breast prolapse?

One is loose ligaments, and the other is excessive weight. In daily life, after stopping breastfeeding, due to a decrease in hormone levels, the mammary ducts, glands, and adipose tissue will atrophy, while the skin and supporting tissues will correspondingly increase, resulting in breast prolapse; After aging, various functions decrease, and endocrine function also decreases. The occurrence of breast prolapse at this time is caused by significant degradation and atrophy of the skin, supporting tissue, fat, and glands. Thirdly, obese breasts, due to their large weight, generally experience varying degrees of sagging; The fourth reason is that the speed of weight loss is too fast, causing relaxation of the adipose tissue and skin in the breast.

What is the degree of breast prolapse?

The classification of prolapse can be divided into five types according to the relationship between the inframammary fold and the lower pole of the breast.

1) Normal breast: the inframammary fold is in the same plane as the lower pole of the breast.

2) Mild ptosis: The lower pole of the breast extends 1-2cm beyond the lower fold.

3) Moderate ptosis: the breast is 2-3 cm below the inframammary fold.

4) Severe ptosis: The lower pole of the breast exceeds the breast fold by 4-10cm.

5) Extra severe ptosis: The lower pole of the breast exceeds the breast fold by more than 10cm.

The secret to improving postpartum breast prolapse

1. Using a bra to correct chest shape

To choose a bra with the appropriate size, the bra should have a bandwidth of about 2 centimeters and be connected vertically with the strap. Products with vertical metal wires next to them can effectively secure the chest. Even during the postpartum period, even if feeling stuffy, it is important to wear a bra to effectively prevent chest sagging.

2. Don't take a sauna

If you sweat in a sauna for a long time, your skin will lose its elasticity and your sagging chest will become even more sagging. Therefore, new mothers should avoid saunas and steam rooms and use warm water for flushing. When taking a shower, you can turn on the shower and spray water from the lower part of the chest upwards, which can promote blood circulation and improve the elasticity of the chest.
