If living with Inverted Nipples or Flat Nipples is a dilemma you are facing, please continue reading as the management of this sensitive subject is hopeful for both men and women. Breastfeeding with inverted or flat nipples can be challenging or impossible for some women and yet for others it appears to be a cosmetic issue. It does affect approximately one of out ten women.

Most physicians are not familiar with the treatments available except for surgery, nor do they discuss the inversion with their clients. To them, it is a variation of normal and since they have very little information to share, it is ignored. They may question if the inversion is congenital and if that is the case, they will usually not be concerned. If the inversion is recent they may want to rule out any underlying causes by ordering mammogram or breast sonar.

Many women will seek counseling from a surgeon for correcting an inverted nipple and this is unfortunate as other methods of treatment could offer them an answer to this sensitive problem. Numerous surgeries are done every year that do not offer a permanent correction of the nipple. Surgery accompanies risk and can interfere with the ability to successfully breastfeed a child.

The most aggressive treatment available without surgery would be the use of the Niplette. It is designed for permanent correction and is affordable for most individuals. The Avent Niplette is usually recommended by Plastic surgeons before they consider doing surgery. This device has been used my men and women with great success for correcting cosmetically and for breastfeeding purposes.

The website MotheringFromTheHeart.com has a Registered Nurse and Lactation Consultant on staff that is highly trained in the use of the device as her specialty is working with inverted and flat nipples. She offers phone counseling and product support as needed. This device can be made affordable to all men and women seeking treatment. A 2 payment plan option is available or Lay Away for those that have difficulty affording the product. To order the Niplette, go to MotheringFromTheHeat.com

The Niplette can also increase the likelihood of a successful outcome if worn after cosmetic surgery for correcting inverted nipples. If it is used after surgery, this must be approved by your plastic surgeon and it is usually done after the wounds have healed. The Niplette uses gentle suction to pull the nipple into a small plastic thimble-like cup and is worn this way for at least eight hours at a time.

Some women have obtained a successful correction of their inverted nipples by breastfeeding for an extended period of time. Of course some women have difficulty breastfeeding with the inverted nipples, so the Niplette is still recommended. The use of Breast Shells, Breast pumps or the Evert-It will not have the same response as the Niplette. The Niplette is the only product researched to correct flat or inverted nipples.
