Can I Continue Breast Feeding As I've Just Discovered my Silicone Implants Have Ruptured?

July 12, 2012
Asked By:iolo

I originally had the implants in 2001, and then in 2010 had my son i had the implants checked ( by surgeon not a scan) whilst pregnant and was told that they were fine and could breast feed,which we have done successfully for 2 years.with the recent pip scare I went to see my gp who advised me to pay for a ultra sound scan. This showed both implants have ruptured, I am now waiting a MRI to see how badly. Can I feed and do I need to get implants out immediately or can I let my son self wean??
