Nipple sparing DMX or not?
I’m going to be scheduling prophylactic DMX with Diep due to Adh and family risk. Need a lift prior to DMX if I go nipple sparing route. This adds a procedure and recovery and also a delay. Is it worth it?

Hi Ellie, I'm tagging a few members who also considered nipple sparing or not with their reconstruction like @trixie1313 @nataliehope @ahurlbert30 @sandyjr @angepatri @ladylawdawg @melomelbee @zeerj
