📡 Bluetooth Breast Pumps: Are They Safe? And Why Tyhan Does Things Differently

In today’s age of smart technology, it's no surprise that Bluetooth-enabled breast pumps have entered the market. These high-tech devices promise convenience — tracking your pumping sessions, storing data, and connecting to apps. But for many mums, the question still lingers:

“Is it really safe to have a Bluetooth device so close to my breast while pumping?”

Let’s take a closer look at what the science says, the potential concerns, and why Tyhan has chosen to keep things simple, safe, and effective — without Bluetooth.

📶 What Does the Research Say?

Bluetooth breast pumps emit non-ionising radiation, the same low-level energy used in things like wireless earbuds and smartwatches. According to current scientific research, this type of radiation:

  • Does not damage cells or DNA

  • Is not linked to cancer or other health issues

  • Is considered safe by international regulatory bodies, including the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) and the TGA

So far, no formal studies have shown a direct link between Bluetooth use in breast pumps and health risks. However, this doesn’t mean all mums feel comfortable using them.

🤔 So, What’s the Concern?

While Bluetooth itself is considered safe, some mums prefer to limit wireless exposure, especially during sensitive activities like breastfeeding or pumping.

Here’s what we often hear from concerned mums:

  • “I don’t want unnecessary technology so close to my chest.”

  • “I don’t need an app to tell me how I’m pumping – I just want a reliable pump.”

  • “What if the Bluetooth malfunctions or disconnects?”

💡 Why Tyhan Chose Not to Include Bluetooth

At Tyhan, we believe less is more — especially when it comes to something as intimate as pumping breast milk. That’s why our Elevate+ and S12 Pro+ pumps are completely Bluetooth-free.

Here’s why that matters:

✅ No wireless radiation near your chest
✅ Simple, safe, and reliable functionality
✅ No need for apps, logins, or syncing
✅ Focus on performance, not gadgets

We know mums want a pump that just works — quietly, discreetly, and effectively — without the stress of connectivity or app settings.
