Is it possible to get mastitis 7 months after stopping breastfeeding?


I had my daughter 9 months ago. When she was about 7 weeks old I got mastitis. It was horrible. My milk would not come back in after that. I tried EVERYTHING! Now I am having breast pain again like when I had mastitis. Is it possible to get mastitis after all this time?

yes it is possible. I got it 3yrs ago and i'd not breastfed for 8yrs at the time. I was shocked as i never got it when pregnant or breastfeeding . But it was confirmed by a doctor
