Milk ducts following inverted nipple correction

Considerate115Feb 1, 2024

Ive had a successful inverted nipple correction on both sides and am very happy with the outcome. Im hoping to have children in the future, what will happen to my breasts/the milk? I am aware i will not be able to breasfeed and that is something i accepted, however can anyone tell me what i can expect to happen to my breasts when the time comes? Will they still fill internally with milk and will it cause pain since i am not able to expell it?
