Breast reduction surgery can potentially impact your ability to breastfeed in the future, as it involves the removal of excess breast tissue and may involve repositioning the nipple-areola complex. While some women are still able to breastfeed after a breast reduction, it’s important to understand that there is a risk of decreased milk production or inability to breastfeed. If preserving breastfeeding ability is a priority for you, it’s crucial to discuss this concern with your surgeon during your consultation so they can provide personalized guidance and discuss the potential impact on breastfeeding based on your specific anatomy and surgical plan.
