During pregnancy, the appearance and figure of a womanchange: rounded shapes, changing facial features. In preparation for the birth of the baby, the breast is actively growing in size, becoming more dense due to the proliferation of glandular tissue. Many women pay attention to the fact that the color and shape of the nipples of the breast also undergo changes.
Halos are round pigmented areas,surrounding nipples, which are almost imperceptible for many before pregnancy, darken after conception, sometimes even to dark brown color. In addition, they can greatly increase in size, which causes psychological problems for many expectant mothers, including an inferiority complex.
And this is understandable:if before pregnancy the nipples were completely light, pale pink, then already in early pregnancy they quickly change with the breast, and already at 20-25 weeks, many mommies begin to produce colostrum.
Many women complain that their husbands do notI like the changes taking place with their body. Therefore, it is important to explain to future fathers that the phenomenon, when the halos increase and darken, is not a pathology.
Do not panic and go to extremes.Enlarged halos around the nipples are quite normal for pregnant women, so to speak, normal female physiology. In almost all women, during pregnancy and after childbirth, the breasts become larger, and the nipples increase and become more prominent. This is necessary so that the baby can easily capture the mammary gland with his mouth. Stretching the same areola occurs due to an increase in the size of the breast.
Appeal to plastic surgeons makes sense inIf the size of the pigmented area is 8 centimeters or more. If the size is much smaller, and the breast has not been greatly deformed, it is worth waiting until the breastfeeding period ends and the body's hormonal alteration occurs after delivery. It is possible that the areolas will decrease by themselves or brighten considerably, which will eliminate the need for surgery.
