Breastfeeding/Pregnancy with pip implants

Concerns are being raised every day now about our general exposure to a HUGE number of environmental toxins without realising. Some of these substances are called Endocrine Disruptor Chemicals. One has come to the attention of the European Commission recently, it`s NOT found in PIP implants. It`s called BISPHENOL A  and there are serious concerns about it. It is an EDC and there are EDCs in PIP implants !

PIP Implants - Is it safe to get pregnant with PIP implants?  
This surgery information video is all about PIPs and whether you can get pregnant if you have PIPs. Getting pregnant whilst having PIPs has no evidence against it saying it can harm your baby, but if you are aware you have PIPs, and are thinking about surgery to have them replaced then getting pregnant is not the best idea. Aurora has had patients who have had to wait until their baby has been born for a replacement of their implants as discussed within the video..


Pregnant with PIP Implants
“The RCOG takes all matters of patient safety very seriously, and in order to inform clinicians, we have produced a Scientific Impact Paper on Chemical Exposures which discusses the implications of endocrine disrupters.”

Chemical Exposures During Pregnancy (Scientific Impact Paper 37)
“This is a new Scientific Impact Paper published by the RCOG’s Scientific Advisory Committee and is designed to inform women who are pregnant or breastfeeding of the sources and routes of chemical exposure in order for them to take positive action in regard to minimising harm to their unborn child.” Read more

BREAST MILK ANALYSIS : Can YOU help?


Women need answers to questions about breast feeding and PIP implants. In UK, just ONE sample of milk has been tested! That`s not science or reassurance or acceptable! If you can volunteer and send a breast milk sample for analysis, it will help all PIP mums everywhere!

Our world needs YOU!   

This is how the analysis works: Dr Giangiacomo Beretta is an Italian scientist working on PIP breast implant analysis. He is based at the University of Milan and has already published two important scientific studies. The breast milk samples should be collected in a small sterile container you can buy at a chemist. Fill in a symptom survey and complete your personal and PIP details. Send both to Dr Beretta in Milan.

Breast-feeding after implants won't cause sagging

This study should be comforting to women with implants who decide to breast-feed, and they should rest assured that their risk of postpartum sagging breasts is not significantly different than the degree of breast sagging in breast-augmented women who do not elect to breast-feed," Salomon said.




Triclosan is a synthetic (man-made) antimicrobial chemical designed to kill germs. Yet it doesn’t kill viruses, which are the causes of colds and the flu. Exposure to triclosan has been associated with some serious health concerns:   
  • It’s been linked to hormone disruption and increased risk of breast cancer.
  • It’s been found in blood and in breast milk, which means that women are passing this chemical on to their developing babies.
