"Interestingly, my SIL had liposuction to one breast.  She was unable  
to breastfeed her baby.  She never made more than drops of milk while  
trying domperidone, and pumping.  At some point I will post more as  
she wants to know if there is anything else she can do if she were to  
have another child to increase the odds of making more milk.  The side  
she had the liposuction done on produced more than the untouched  
breast.  She reported no change in sensation, and no periareolar  
incision.  She even leaked a little colostrum while pregnant.  She had  
no difficulty becoming pregnant.  I was hopeful that breastfeeding  
wouldn't be a problem for her."

The fact that reduction was only done on one side tells me that she had disproportionate size differences.  Isn't this one possible marker for atypical glandular tissue?  I suspect that whatever led to the need for unilateral reduction may also be at the heart of milk production challenges.
