Breast

As far as I can remember I've had an inverted nipple I have gone to my doctor and they said it was nothing to worry about as they couldn't find a lump and said it's normal but still sent me to the hospital where I was checked over and they said I was down I've had no scan.

im now pregnant and understand my breast will change but they feel sensitive and heavy as well as my left breast feels very sensitive that's the breast with the inverted nipple. As well as having purple marks like lines on the outside of my boobs - left and right… I'm using bio oil to see if they stink in size and see if their stretch marks?

any advice would be helpful I'm 19 years of age 20 in November X

  • Hello Lewis19x, 

    Welcome to our forum! Pregnancy is indeed well known to affect your breasts. For reassurance, you could talk to your GP about it and explain that the breast with the inverted nipple is feeling very sensitive and that you are worried about these purple marks. Mention to your doctor too that you are using bio oil on them just to make sure that this is the right thing to do. Your doctor will be in the best position to tell you more and advise you further on this. 

    Congratulations on your pregnancy! I hope it all goes well for you. 

    Best wishes,
