Order Supple Cups for
Treatment of Inverted Nipples or Flat Nipples
Included with order: Free unit dose sample of nipple ointment which is necessary to be used with the Supple Cups-New Product- Still being evaluated
The Supple Cups for inverted nipples are not FDA approved at this time as a medical device, and the Supple Cups are still under my evaluation compared to the Niplette, I must say that I have been impressed with my experiences with the Supple Cups. I have a small group of women that are currently using it along with the Niplette to provide me feedback. I anxiously await their feedback on which they prefer and the outcome of the study. In my first comparison of the products, I did find that the Supple Cups were much easier to use.While the Supple Cups may not allow for as much suction as the Niplette, it is less expensive, can be sterilized and cleaned easily and unless it is lost or purposely torn, it is practically indestructible. The Niplette can many times need to be replaced as it will not last forever. Unlike the Avent Niplette, the Supple Cups are available in different sizes. The Niplette thimble does have a small hole opening where the tube inserts and elicits direct suction on the nipple tissue which can lead to a blister formation on the side of the areola or nipple if you are not careful. . This is not a problem with the Supple Cups.
Sizing
The Supple Cups are available in different sizes. Do not worry about measuring. Contact us directly if you feel your nipples are excessively large. Most people will be able to wear the standard #3 size. If you are a male or very young adolescent, please order #1, If you are an adult female with very small nipples or flat nipples, order #2. If your nipples are normal to large or if your nipples are inverted, order #3. If you think your nipples are extremely large, call me for a measurement; a #4 is rarely needed. The #3 is about the same size as the Niplette and I've been selling the Niplette since 1999 and have not had a client that was unable to use the Niplette as a one size fits all device. The #3 size will allow for greater suction if needing to treat an inverted nipple.
Other products needed for ease of use
IMPORTANT: It is absolutely necessary that a nipple ointment and Shells be used while wearing the Supple Cups. Otherwise, your bra will cause it to come off immediately. While this product is cheaper than the Niplette, adding the Shells and the ointment still keeps the total cost lower than the Niplette. (The Niplette also requires the ointment and most of the time, the Shells too.) Men do not need to purchase Shells as they do not wear bras, but men will need the nipple ointment too.You may order only one Supple Cup if you only have one nipple that needs treating. The twin pack is of course cheaper. Please see below at the different options for ordering.
Pregnant or Breastfeeding?
It can't be used for permanent correction while lactating because the breastmilk will fill up the thimble and limit the length of time it can be worn, but it still can be very beneficial when used before latching the baby on to help draw out the nipple in the first few days after birth. . If you are currently pregnant, please inform your obstetrician that you are using the device and contact us for special instructions on use while pregnant. When ordering, there is an option to let us know if you are currently pregnant. Please mark "yes" if pregnant and "no" if not currently pregnant. If you become pregnant, let us know for further instructions.
