Do milk ducts get blocked more for those who have breast implants and are trying to breast feed?
Answer: Breast Augmentation Implants and Blocked Milk Ducts Breast Implants do not alter significantly your ability to breast feed by themselves. it doesn't make any difference if your implants are above or below your muscle with regards to breast feeding potential. The incision site may however make a difference. The incision site, specifically the periareolar incision may cause blocked milk ducts and decrease your ability to breast feed though in my experience most will still be able. Remember not all women can breast feed successfully.

Answer: Breast Implants and Breast Feeding
The presence of breast implants does not affect the function of the breast tissue, and therefore should not affect milk production. If you have previously nursed a child you should be able to do so again following breast augmentation. If you do not yet have children you do not know how successful breast feeding will be for you. However, breast implants will not affect whatever ability you would otherwise have to breast feed. The implants themselves do not block the lactiferous ducts.
If the breast augmentation is performed through a peri-areolar incision, the incision itself, may damage a few lactiferous ducts but this should not be significant enough to alter milk production. When performing breast augmentation through a periareolar incision, some surgeons may divide a portion of the breast gland. Depending upon how this is done, some additional duct division may occur and this may alter milk production to some extent. This would be an important point to discuss with your plastic surgeon.
Best wishes.

Answer: Will my Breast Implants Block my Milk Ducts?
It is not the implants that can block your ducts but the location of the incision in the areolar. By incising that area there is a potential of damaging the ductules, especially in smaller areolae.

Answer: Breast Implants and Breast Feeding
Implants are placed behind the breast tissue and do not interfere with breast feeding at all. In some rare cases, if the implants are placed through an incision around the nipple, some milk ducts may have been cut during surgery. However, even in that situation, breast feeding is possible since most of your milk ducts should still be intact.

Answer: Breast implants will not block milk ducts. Breast feeding is fine.
Breast implants, whether subglandular or submuscular, are placed behind the breast and do not effect the function of the breast. Breast feeding is fine.
