Inverted Nipples (Women only, please!)?!


Question: Inverted Nipples (Women only, please!)!?
Hello :) Now, I know that a nipple becoming inverted can be a sign of breast cancer, but I am 21 and for as long as I can remember, my right nipple has been inverted!. But I do not know when it became inverted, but it must have done at some point! If you get me!? It is not constantly inverted, when I am cold and my other nipple is erect, the right one is too, most of the time!. BUT they are not always erect together!. Lol, it is quite confusing! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
ThanksWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
i hope you don't mind me answering, as I am a man, but this is a condition that can affect men and women!.

Like the first answerer said, you should go see a doctor about this to put your mind at ease!. Like you say, it can be a symptom of breast cancer and it's important that people are aware of this, but it can also be due to lots of other things!.

In your case, you are 21, and have had this for a long time, probably from birth and it has only become more noticable as you have matured!. This is a fairly common phenomenon, as I understand!.

Some women have cosmetic surgery to correct it, others try certain manipulation of the tissue to loosen it (as this is what causes the protraction), but these are things best discussed with a health professional!.

Go get checked out, it's always good to be overly cautious -
Best of luck,

Most likely, it's nothing!.
1/2 of every women have inverted nipples!
Did you know that!?
I'm 13 and I have inverted nipples!.
I was tested for breast cancer!.
It was negative!.
If you really feel the need to get it checked out, please, be my guest!.
But it's really most likely nothing!.
If you have had a sufficiently healthy life, it's just an inverted nipple!
Many of my friends have inverted nipples!.
