How do breast reduction surgeries affect a woman's ability to breastfeed?

 Breast reduction surgeries typically involve the removal of glandular tissue, and this can make it difficult or impossible to breastfeed. However, there are a number of different techniques that can be used during a breast reduction surgery, and so it's important to speak with your surgeon about the specific procedure he or she will be using.

There is also some debate about whether or not breast reductions actually affect lactation ability. Some studies have shown that women who have had a breast reduction are less likely to be able to produce milk, while other studies have shown that there is no difference in lactation ability between women who have had a breast reduction and those who have not. More research is needed in this area.
