Understanding IGT, Optimizing Milk Supply and Caring for your Mental Health

IGT is a condition in which the glandular (milk-producing) tissue of the breast did not develop fully, either in utero, during puberty, or during pregnancy. The condition is rare, though it's likely under-diagnosed because many providers aren't well-trained to recognize it. Knowing what it is, how it may impact your feeding journey and what you can do to be supported can make all the difference in you meeting your breastfeeding goals.
