Retracted nipple associated with childbirth - what does this mean
Retracted nipple associated with childbirth occurs when the nipple is pulled back into the breast as a result of the pressure of the baby's head during labor. this can cause the nipple to become misshapen or inverted, and can cause pain and discomfort.
What happens during the disease - retracted nipple associated with childbirth
Retracted nipple associated with childbirth is believed to be caused by a combination of hormonal and physical changes that occur during pregnancy and delivery. during pregnancy, the hormones progesterone and prolactin are released, which can cause the nipples to become more sensitive and the surrounding tissue to become more elastic. during delivery, the baby's head can press against the mother's nipples, causing them to become retracted. additionally, the physical trauma of childbirth can damage the tissue in the area, leading to further retraction of the nipple.
