When it comes to nipples, what's normal?

 

 

Nipples are kind of like belly buttons. They can be “innies” or “outies.” Although you don’t hear about them much, inverted nipples are actually fairly common. Girls and guys can have them, and it can affect one or both or your nipples.
 

So what’s the cause? There are actually a number of factors that contribute to the way your nipples look. Two common causes of inverted nipples are scar tissue and a shorter milk duct. Both draw the nipple back instead of letting it stick out.

The biggest problem a severe case of inverted nipples can cause involves breastfeeding—and we’re betting (and hoping) that’s far from your mind right now.
 
While you can get surgery to “fix” your nipples, it’s painful and usually unnecessary. There’s no reason to be worried unless this inversion is a very sudden, recent occurrence, or you’re experiencing pain. If you are concerned, though, it’s always a good idea to talk to your doctor. It never hurts to make sure you’re healthy!

MOD MOD MOD!!!I have inverted nipples SOMETIMES. I have inverted nipples a lot but they are still out sometimes too. What is that called?




Hey babe,

I'm not really an expert on this kind of stuff so I don't know what it would specifically be called. Rest assured, there's nothing wrong with them! Breasts can go through a lot of changes.

MOD MOD MOD!
3 Questions:
1. i am about to turn twelve. I guess i started puberty at nine cause thats when my boobs started getting pointy and sticking out. Now i wear the same bra i wore 3 years ago (34A )Should i be concerned???
2. THis to me is totally awkward and disgusting but there is this little thing on my breast. It is like a very short hair but is too thick and straight to be hair. It looks kind of like a little tiny black needle stuck in my chest with a light brown (lighter than my skin) circle around it. What could it be. It was never there before.




Hey girl!

So first, if you're still comfortable in that same bra and you think it fits well, then it's fine to keep wearing it. I'm not exactly sure what the thing on your breast is, so I think you should ask your mom or a doctor about that, just to be safe.
