Inverted nipple

Hi all,

I gave birth to my beautiful girl 12 weeks ago. She was breastfed for the first month of her life and the last two months she has been on formula only. For the past week I've noticed that my right nipple has inverted. There is also a smelly discharge. I've never suffered with inverted nipples before and know that this is a sign of cancer so now I am panicking. I've made an appointment with my GP but I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem and was diagnosed?

  • Hi , I joined this site yesterday asking if anyone had a inverted nipple!. I noticed mine a few months ago and I finally went to the doctors. I was given a 2week urgent referral on the 22nd Jan and I have heard nothing. I have rang the hospital but they say there is a delay in the breast clinic. It's really worrying. I don't have any discharge in mine and I am 57yrs old. Obviously you are a lot younger than me, with a new baby. Please get to the doctor as it will ease your mind.i must admit this waiting for appointment is driving me crazy but at least I know I will be tested soon. Go and get tested...please.xx
