Frequently asked questions
Does this shield improve milk expression efficiency?
Yes. The PersonalFit PLUS shield features a scientifically engineered 105° opening angle, which is designed to help remove more milk within a 15-minute timeframe compared to traditional 90° breast shields.
Will the oval shape provide extra comfort?
Absolutely. The innovative oval shape is specifically engineered to contour naturally to the breast, which helps reduce pressure on breast tissue during your pumping sessions.
Is the material durable for daily use?
Yes, it is constructed from high-quality, medical-grade polypropylene. This material is selected for its durability and reliability for long-term, repeated use.
Is this breast shield reusable?
Yes, this product is designed for multiple uses. It is made from resilient, medical-grade plastic that can be cleaned and sterilized for ongoing nursing support.
How does the 105-degree angle differ from standard shields?
Standard breast shields typically use a 90° opening. By utilizing a 105° angle, this design minimizes the restrictive pressure on the breast, promoting better milk flow and increased comfort.
Is this product safe for sensitive skin?
The shield is crafted from medical-grade polypropylene, a smooth and non-reactive material widely used in nursing accessories to ensure safety and comfort during use.
Are the cleaning requirements straightforward?
Yes. The material features a smooth, glossy finish designed for easy maintenance, cleaning, and sterilization, making it a highly practical accessory for nursing mothers.
How should I measure to ensure the 21 mm size fits?
While the 21 mm size is a specific variant, Medela suggests selecting a size that allows the nipple to move freely in the tunnel without rubbing. If you feel excessive pressure or pain, you may need to evaluate your fit against standard clinical sizing guidelines.
Is this shield compatible with standard Medela pump systems?
Yes, this component is part of the PersonalFit PLUS line, which is designed to integrate into specialized breast pump systems to optimize your pumping experience.
Does the design support shorter pumping sessions?
Because the ergonomic 105° design facilitates more effective milk expression, many users find they can achieve better output in shorter amounts of time compared to traditional accessories.
