Granted, I don't suggest it for everyone but I have used average guaged needles before and don't see much harm in it. Maybe, it's just me but I see a huge difference between cutting into a vein or artery to where it would hemorage and using average sized needles in needleplay.
As a medical professional who has drawn blood from numerous sources, I will state firmly, there is a big difference in puncturing a vein and artery. Arteries require ten to twenty minutes of firm pressure to seal. I would think that would not be possible in deep breast tissue. I have seen pretty big bruises from surface punctures of arteries that were not kept under pressure. If your sub has taken ANY blood thinning drugs, under no circumstances do this.
