Breast Pads Market size was valued at USD 180.6 million in 2022 and is estimated to account for USD 431 million by 2032. Breast pads are also known as nursing pads or breast shields, these are absorbent pads that breastfeeding women use inside their bras as breastfeeding accessories to minimize breast milk leaking.
Typically, they are round or oval-shaped pads composed of soft, breathable fabrics like cotton or disposable materials such as paper or polymer. Breast pads are intended to be worn over the nipples in order to absorb any leaking that may occur between nursing sessions. They act as a barrier between the breasts and the fabric, thereby keeping the section dry and preventing stains. Breast pads can also assist to avoid nipple discomfort and chafing while also providing comfort and support.
As more women enter the workforce and pursue professional careers, there is a higher demand for breast pads. Working mothers often need to manage breastfeeding and breast milk leakage while away from their babies. Breast pads provide a convenient solution to address leakage and maintain personal hygiene during working hours. For instance, according to the International Labor Organization, the employment rate of women ranging from 25 to 54 years is 51.6%.
