Ameda Launches Mya Pro as Latest in Line of Hospital Strength Personal Breast Pumps

BUFFALO GROVE, Ill., May 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Ameda Breastfeeding Products today officially announced its launch of Ameda Mya Pro™ — the latest in a new family of hospital-strength personal breast pumps. Ameda Mya Pro is a premium personal pump designed to offer advanced customization and convenience to breastfeeding mothers.

"Every feature of Mya Pro was engineered to help moms reach their breastfeeding goals with comfort and ease. That starts with control," said Patricia Scheller, Ameda Chief Executive Officer. "Each woman is different, and many have a hard time finding a pump with settings that can be optimized for them. With Ameda Mya Pro, we've brought comfort, customization and convenience to a whole new level."

Mya Pro features twelve levels of independently controlled expression modes and five levels massage/stimulation modes. Like other Ameda pumps, Mya Pro features a true closed system to protect against mold or the spread of bacteria and viruses.

"We also integrated a retractable handle for portability, an LED light for nighttime pumping, a backlit LCD timer display, and a memory function that automatically recalls the previous settings," Scheller continued. "As with other pumps in the Mya family, Mya Pro is ultra-quiet and discreet, which is convenient for at-work or late-night pumping."

The Mya family name is an ode to Sister Maya, a historic Ameda figure and the co-creator of the modern breast pump. Sister Maya worked alongside Swedish inventor and founder of Ameda, Einar Egnell, to develop the first breast pump that mimicked a baby's natural nursing rhythm and intensity—the Sister Maya Breast Pump, or SMB. The Ameda Mya Pro is available in the United States through insurance benefits, Amazon, and at www.ameda.com.
