Inverted Nipples & Breast Lumps

Hi Everyone, 

I'm quite new here, however I just wondered if anyone had any advice. 

I'm 21 years old and since I began developing, I've always had inverted nipples and as my breasts grew, so did lumps which seem to be attached to the nipples. My breasts are both quite tender and the lumps feel quite solid. I've never been to the doctors about it as it's always something I've felt quite embarrassed about it but as I'm growing older I'm beginning to think that it's time to go. 

Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Hi,

    Welcome to the forum.

    I am not a doctor, but would suggest that you to see your GP.

    We are always advised to get anything like this checked out, even if only for your own peace of mind.

    There is absolutely nothing to be embarrased about. Many ladies have naturally lumpy breasts. You can always ask the receptionist to see a female doctor, if this would make you feel more comfortable.

    I sincerely hope that nothing untoward is found. Please let us know how you get on. We are always here for you

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
