If the implants are subpectoral, they should have no effect on breast feeding. They should not have an effect, either, if they are in front of the pectoral muscle, but behind all the breast tissue.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
