I had a capsular contracture that developed 4 months after getting implants. Before realizing what it was, I became pregnant so I had to wait over a year and a half to get it fixed. My ps fixed it with mesh, and all seemed fine, even through a second pregnancy (6m after fix)...until I started breastfeeding. Now it's back and I don't know whether or not I should get it fixed again or if my body will reject it. We also aren't sure if we're done having children. Should I just get them out?

Answer: I had a capsular contracture, had it fixed with mesh, and it came back a year later. Should I have them removed at this point?
